Kiln Creek/Patrick Henry Mall Area Sewer Pipe Replacement

Body

 

HRSD, your regional wastewater treatment utility, is planning a project in your neighborhood to replace the existing HRSD sanitary sewer pipelines that are nearing the end of their useful life. This replacement project will also improve the system’s performance and ensure continued, reliable sewer service in the future. The answers to some Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs) are provided here.

Project Overview

HRSD is undertaking a project to replace and upgrade sewer pipes in the Kiln Creek/Patrick Henry Mall area. This effort will increase operational flexibility, reduce system pressures, and improve performance within the sewer system. A micro-tunnel will be used to install the new sewer pipes under I-64 without cutting open the road above it. The remainder of the new sewer pipes will be installed in a trench. Pavement restoration of the roadways affected by installation of the sewer pipes will occur once the sewer installation is complete. The existing sewer pipes will not be needed once the new sewer pipes have been installed and will be abandoned in place. This means the abandoned pipes will be filled with a cementitious-like material so they can remain underground. This prevents more area from having to be dug up and disturbed.
