The existing 6- <br />inch-diameter asbestos cement water main, which was installed in the 1960s, has been <br />experiencing a number of significant breaks and leaks, and has been identified as a <br />priority for replacement. <br />The Grovemont Street Water Main Improvements Project will include replacement of <br />approximately 3,580 linear feet of 8” polyvinyl chloride (PVC) water main and <br />approximately 40 linear feet of 12" PVC water main, plus all necessary appurtenances <br />related to the new water facilities in the area identified in Exhibit 1. <br />City Council 14 –1 11/16/2021
