Project Title:
CFHWYWD - Line Replacement and Reinforcement

Project Description:
The Cumberland Falls Highway Water District proposes to replace approximately 39,300 feet of undersized, old, and leakage prone water lines; reinforce its system by looping lines and extending service to approximately 15 existing residences with service currently unavailable. The water lines including multiple long service lines will be replaced along the following roads: Corinth Cemetery 1,675’, Chestnut 5,100’, Asher Lane 3,620’, Todd Ridge 1,550’, McKeehan Crossing 4,500’, Little Spruce Creek 2,160’, Ward Cemetery 750’, Stoney Fork 3,980’, KY Hwy. 90 550’, Rev. Gene Young 560’, Melton 980’, Goldbug Church 3,750’, Mt. View 1,470’, US 25W 1,350’, Grandview 1,000’, Becks Creek 1,890’, Jimmy Hamilton 525’ and Shelby St. (Becks Creek Road) main from Brush Arbor 1,480’. Loops will be added into the system on the following roads: Clearview Drive 375’, Wilder Road 5,600’, unnamed side road connecting Rev. Gene Young and Upper Barr Hill Roads 430’, and Veterans Lane 600’. Water main extensions will be made along the following roads: Otto Sulfridge 325’, Willis 1,225’, Burkhart Lane 840’ and an unnamed side road off Prewitt Bend 1,670’. The replacement lines in most cases will be installed adjacent to the existing main/service lines. In a few cases it will be laid in the ditch line on the opposite side of the road or pulled back over to the road ditch line from the private property outside the right-of-way. All stream crossings will be directionally bored and a portion of the new main between Shelby Street (Becks Creek Road) and Brush Arbor Road will also be directionally bored eliminating the removal of trees, etc. in those areas. Best Management Practices will be used in all areas with all construction methods to minimize any impacts on the surrounding environment. Project will also replace a master meter, purchase AMR meters, and SCADA, which will help with security. HB 265 funds have been used to reimburse for the solenoid valve station and telemetry system and other equipment. Contract 3 - The project will replace approximately 5,700 feet of old deteriorated/undersized water distribution lines along US 25 and KY 90 as well as relocating a booster pump station. It will also make water available along three roads which are currently not served. The extensions include approximately 7,210 feet of four inch and approximately 525 feet of three inch PVC water line to serve approximately 26 households. If funds remain at the end of this project, two alternates will be considered. Alternate 1 consists of replacing 1,700 feet of three inch waterline on Buc Road with new three inch PVC and PE waterline. Alternate 2 consists of replacing 5.500 feet of three inch waterline on KY 90 with new four inch PVC waterline. Alternate 3 consists of the extension of 3,000 feet of three inch PVC waterline to serve approximately 5 customers on KY 92.

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:
Project will replace/reinforce inadequate water lines and extend water lines to unserved customers.

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 lines as needed.

Alternate B:

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:
