INTRODUCTION
The enclosed resolution authorizes the award of the construction contract for the
FY2017 Sanitary Sewer Cured-in-Place Pipe (CIPP) Lining Project.
BACKGROUND
The City of Dubuque, Iowa is under a Consent Decree according to Case
2:11-cv-01001-EJM, United States of America and the State of Iowa v. the City of
Dubuque, IA (N.D. Iowa), Civil Action Number 2008V00041, DOJ Case Number
90-5-1-1-09339 effective June 27, 2011. The City is required to submit Corrective Action
plans for each of the Sanitary Sewersheds identified in the Consent Decree. The FY16
budget appropriated funds for sanitary sewer rehabilitative improvements in the
Consent Decree Correction Action Plans for Sewershed 5 and 12. Work is also
scheduled in Sewershed 6.
Rehabilitation will be performed using a Cured-In-Place-Pipe (CIPP) method, which
significantly reduces digging; however some spot repairs may be necessary. CIPP is a
resin-impregnated felt tube that is installed in an existing damaged or leaking sewer.
Once inserted into the pipe, it is expanded and cured by applying heat. The liner is a
seamless, joint-less pipe with a smooth inner surface that restores the flow capacity of
the pipe. The seamless pipe also prevents infiltration. Robotic cutters are then used to
restore private sewer service connections. The high costs and inconvenience to the
public associated with the excavation and restoration of pavement for sanitary sewer
rehabilitation projects has led to the development of "trenchless" technologies. Cured-
in-Place Pipe (CIPP) is a versatile trenchless method for restoring structural integrity to
sewer mains.
DISCUSSION
The lining program was determined from flow monitoring and smoke testing activities
completed by engineering staff in Sewersheds 5, 6 and 12; in addition to those sewers
identified during Public Works maintenance activities such as cleaning, televising, and
following up on customer issues. The Project involves the rehabilitation of 6,239 feet of
sanitary sewer main as well as cementitious spray lining 58 vertical feet of brick
manholes.
