Body
BACKGROUND
This action will authorize a construction contract for the installation and rehabilitation of approximately 49,489 feet of water and wastewater mains and the replacement of 23 large water transmission valves. This includes the installation of approximately 100 feet of 4-inch, 840 feet of 6-inch, 19,795 feet of 8-inch, 1,940 feet of 12-inch, 5,830 feet of 16-inch, and 20 feet of 20-inch water mains. It also includes the installation/rehabilitation of approximately 19,890 feet of 8-inch, 470 feet of 12-inch, 574 feet of 15-inch, and 30 feet of 18-inch wastewater mains. The existing water and wastewater mains and valves were built between 1928 and 2005. These mains and valves are contributing to an increase in maintenance costs, as well as service interruptions. The installation of the proposed segments and valves will improve the capacity of the water and wastewater systems and reduce maintenance costs.
In addition to the installation and rehabilitation of water and wastewater mains and large water valves, the construction contract includes the extension of about 11,010 feet of water and wastewater mains to four unserved areas. The extensions include approximately 2,310 feet of 6-inch and 8-inch water mains and 8,700 feet of 8-inch wastewater mains. To improve equity and provide service to all residents, Dallas established the Unserved Areas program in Fiscal Year 2020-21. The goal of the unserved area program is to extend service to parts of Dallas that currently do not have accessible water and/or wastewater mains. Priority is given to areas and neighborhoods that are already occupied and where extending service benefits existing residents.
The four locations on this contract were designed in-house and represent the highest priorities in the unserved areas program. The remaining identified, occupied areas are currently in design with phased construction expected to start in summer 2023.
