60 feet of a 12-inch-diameter water main will be installed in the following location:
- Kempton St. public right-of-way approximately 50 feet north of the St. George St. intersection.
WHEN:
Construction is expected to begin in late May 2020 and be completed by November 2020.
WHO:
Otay Water District awarded the construction contract to LB Civil Construction, Inc.
COST:
The District’s budget for the Dictionary Hill Water Line Replacement Project is approximately $1.9 million.
WHY:
The Otay Water District provides potable water service to portions of Spring Valley. The District regularly invests in Capital Improvement Projects to assure efficient operations, comply with regulations, and replace aging infrastructure. District Capital Improvement Projects are funded through user rates and capacity charges.
The new water main will be installed in a deeper location so the County of San Diego’s Public Works Department can replace the undersized storm drain pipe in the area. Construction will occur while Kempton Street Elementary School is out of session to minimize disruption and water service will not be interrupted.
