Body
BACKGROUND
Dallas Water Utilities has plans to install a 72-inch diameter water transmission pipeline between the Elm Fork Water Treatment Plant and the Bachman Water Treatment Plant. The 72-inch pipeline is required to increase system capacity, hydraulic flexibility, and meet system needs as recommended through master planning and long range water supply planning efforts. Portions of the nearly 10-mile long pipeline have been constructed and the southern connection in Harry Hines Boulevard from Cullum Lane to Walnut Hill Lane is currently under construction.
This action will authorize a construction contract with Oscar Renda Contracting, Inc. for the installation of approximately 8,700 feet of a 72-inch diameter water transmission pipeline from the Elm Fork Water Treatment Plant to Crosby Road within the corporate limits of Carrollton. The project will be the first of two phases to complete the northern connection from Farmers Branch to the Elm Fork Water Treatment Plant. A future construction project will install the last section of the pipeline between Farmers Branch and Crosby Road.
