Additional Backup Information: Austin Water’s wastewater collection system is fundamental for the conveyance of wastewater to treatment plants. Austin Water’s collections system is large and complex, consisting of approximately 3,000 miles of mains serving approximately one million customers. Due to deterioration from the harsh conditions of the environment, collection system assets require ongoing repair and replacement to prevent sanitary sewer overflows. The Greater South Creek (Elm Creek Drive) Wastewater Pipeline Renewal project will repair 5,400 linear feet of deteriorated wastewater mains with cured-in-place-pipe replace 450 linear feet of deteriorated wastewater mains, and repair or replace all associated fittings. The project area infrastructure was identified through closed-circuit television inspection and selected for rehabilitation based upon the physical condition of the wastewater main, and the amount of inflow and infiltration. Inflow and infiltration are the estimated amount of groundwater or rainwater leaking into a wastewater main. Additionally, the wastewater line in the area has a history of sanitary sewer overflows making it a high-priority candidate for renewal.
