Project Title:
Ohio County Water District Water Main Upgrade Project
Project Description:
ADDITIONAL SCOPE OF WORK IN PROJECT PROFILE WX21183044 - SAI KY201709111089 This project proposes the replacement of a current 6-inch asbestos/concrete line with approximately 5,500 LF of 8-inch PVC line in order to increase the capacity and the ability serve customers receiving water from the existing 500,000 gallon Hoover Hill Tank. Approximately 800 homes/businesses will benefit from this project with improved water quality, reliability, service and delivery. It will also improve the disinfection by-product levels (TTHM/HAA) by increasing water flow and usage to an area susceptible to such issues. This project will also provide a vital backup to an 8-inch water line crossing at Rough River, as well as to an existing 440 GPM pump station. Should either the water line or pump station fail a major disruption of water service in the northern service area would occur. The Hoover Hill project also contains very definite regionalization potential for the Ohio County Water District to provide water to additional wholesale water customers. ADDITIONAL SCOPE OF WORK ADDED TO PROJECT PROFILE - SAI KY201703130447 The district has requested to change order additional work in the scope of the project to include the following: The proposed work includes the replacement of non-working valves and a failing PVC road bore discovered during construction of the original project and which was covered under SAI #KY20150421-0378 and AI ID: 3305; PLN20150001. New work proposed includes the replacing approximately 2,115 linear feet of two inch line with six-inch PVC pipe to be installed along Apple House Road, a six-inch tapping sleeve and valve with kickers and a one-inch manual air release valve – all to be installed on Apple House road. The cost of the additional work totals $51,995.00 Original Scope of Work covered under SAI# KY201504210378: This project proposes installing 16-inch line that will replace the current 8- and 10-inch lines already in place. The proposed project will eliminate one existing pump station at a significant savings of nearly $40,000 annually to the water district while improving reliability of the system to effectively deliver water to the northern section of Ohio County and the southern section of Daviess County. This project proposes the installation of approximately 15,500 LF of 16-inch water main lines beginning at Bluegrass Crossing Industrial Park water tank and ending at the Industrial Park East Water Tank. This project will dramatically increase the reliability of service to two major industrial parks, as well at the anticipated potential growth in these areas The estimated cost of this project totals $1,630,000
Need For Project:
Briefly describe how this project promotes public health or achieves and/or maintains compliance with the Clean Water Act or Safe Drinking Water Act:
This project will both enhance current services to existing customers, including two major industrial parks, while allowing for potential growth in the service areas.
Project Alternatives:
Alternate A:
Note: If project includes the construction of a new treatment plant or upgrade to existing plant, please explain regionalization options here.
Replace and/or rehab current pump station at a cost estimated cost on nearly $100,000 to the water district.
Alternate B:
The construction of a second pump station to support and offer the Bluegrass Crossing Industrial Park a reliable water supply should its tank ever fail.

Green Infrastructure:
Green stormwater infrastructure includes a wide array of practices at multiple scales that manage wet weather and that maintains and restores natural hydrology by infiltrating, evapotranspiring and harvesting and using stormwater. On a regional scale, green infrastructure is the preservation and restoration of natural landscape features, such as forests, floodplains, and wetlands, coupled with policies such as infill and redevelopment that reduce overall imperviousness in a watershed. On the local scale, green infrastructure consists of site and neighborhood-specific practices, such as:
