RE PROPOSAL TO BEGIN DESIGN PHASE
PROJECT 1112100-131 TELEVISING SEWER LINES
Gentlemen
The previous four large phases of televising projects completed
over a four year period covered the majority of the District s
sewer mains and the results of the televising have become the
foundation for determining the schedule for maintenance and
rehabilitation of the sewer system
At this point it is desired to scale down the televising to a
series of small yearly projects_ that will achieve the following
results
1 By limiting the televising to less than $5 000 per year the
project does not have to be bid The District can select
its own contractor which will be the contractor who was the
low bidder and completed the four large televising projects
This will provide continuity in record keeping and
efficiency in completing the work since the contractor is
familiar with the system.
2 The District receives frequent calls from homeowners who
believe tree roots in the District s main line are causing
stoppages in their laterals By having the televising
contractor working on a regular basis throughout the
District the contractor can easily include areas where there
is a potential dispute
3 Certain areas need to be re-televised to check the
structural condition of the pipe and to determine the
effectiveness of the root cutting and foaming
4 There are some areas that have not yet been televised and
these areas will be a part of the proposed small yearly
televising projects
