2019 CIPP Sewer Rehabilitation

The sanitary sewer system is over 60 years old and at the end of its useful life. The area east of Indianwood and south of Sauk Trail has specifically been an issue in recent years. Video inspections of the sewer in the surrounding area show substantial deterioration and the need for rehabilitation. The Public Works Department has chosen to line these sewers as the method of rehabilitation. Lining, also called Cured in Place Pipe (CIPP), is a rehabilitation method that inserts fabric inside the old pipe, then inflates and cures the fabric up against the host pipe. The result is a new pipe, structurally non-reliant on the host pipe, with a useful life in excess of 50 years. See the link below that will show the map of the areas targeted for sewer rehabilitation in 2019.
