100 Lead Service Line Replacements

To replace lead service lines using trenchless methods including, but not limited to, the following (Pulling, Hole Hogging, Boring, Directional Drilling, and Pipe Bursting). Service line replacement locations may include properties along upcoming paving projects, childcare facilities, or emergency locations where a leak or failure has occurred. Each location will require either the full replacement of the water service line from the municipal water main up to the interior water meter setting, or, at locations where a portion of the service line was previously replaced with copper, the replacement of the remaining lead portion of the service line. When the existing water meter setting is not code compliant, work will also include a new meter setting. Work may include, the procurement of all necessary permits, a site visit prior to work beginning, scheduling the installation with the property owner, traffic control, erosion control, saw-cutting, excavation, installation of a new copper service line utilizing trenchless technology (MWW approval is required for open cut installation), tapping of the water main, abandonment of the lead service line, installation of an updated water meter setting up to and including the outlet valve, reconnection to the interior building piping, code-compliant restoration of the electrical ground wire, backfilling of the excavation(s), restoration of pavement, curb and gutter, and walk, and final cleanup of the work site
