Project Description

 

Metropolitan Council Environmental Services (ES), operator of the metro-area wastewater collection and treatment system, rehabilitated 8,500 linear feet of sanitary sewer interceptor pipe that was in poor condition due to age and corrosion.

The sanitary sewer is located within a large stormwater tunnel, resulting in the term "pipe in pipe". Maintenance holes were constructed prior to rehabilitating the sanitary sewer for access to repair the sewer pipe and to provide access for future sewer cleaning and televising.

This project began summer 2021 and was completed in summer 2022.
