The Public Works Agency is in need of a new <br />vehicle for its Sewer Lateral Repair Program. <br />For nearly a decade, the City has been successfully using contract services to rehabilitate the <br />City's aging public sewer collection system using main lining, a form of trenchless technology. <br />With this technology, new sewer piping is pushed through an existing pipe using hydraulic <br />equipment. Very little excavation is required and the process can be completed in a relatively <br />short amount of time. Proven success with this effective and cost-efficient technology for sewer <br />main rehabilitation and repair has made it the best choice for the City's Sewer Lateral Repair <br />Program. <br />There are over 45,000 privately owned sewer laterals in the City which convey sewage from <br />homes and businesses to the main public sewer collection system. The City's Sewer Lateral <br />Repair Program provides for the repair or replacement of sewer laterals from the edge of the <br />property owner's property line to where it connects to the public sewer main in the street.
