Hopkins System Improvements: Program 8041
The Program provides for the replacement of a 5-mile-long force main, known as the Hopkins force main, and lift station L27 located in the city of Hopkins. The force main is a single 24 to 30-inch interceptor pipe that begins in Hopkins at the intersection of Blake Rd and Lake St and passes through St. Louis Park and Minneapolis where it discharges to the 1-MN-330 gravity interceptor sewer. The system serves the cities of Hopkins, St. Louis Park, and Minneapolis. The new force main system is constructed as a dual 18 to 24-inch pipe system. The new 6.3 mgd lift station is constructed 700-feet to the west of the existing lift station.
