Explanation
§ The McAlpine Creek relief sewer is needed to address both wet weather and higher anticipated wastewater flow, due to projected growth in the McAlpine Creek drainage basin.

§ The relief sewer was intended to be constructed over a number of years in several phases. Construction on Phases 1, 2, and 3 was completed in 2010, 2012, and 2016, respectively. Phase 4, the final phase, will extend from Independence Boulevard to Lawyers Road (Council District 5), and includes over 16,000 feet of 30 and 36-inch diameter pipe.
§ On August 27, 2018, the City issued an Invitation to Bid; five bids were received.
§ State Utility Contractors, Inc. was selected as the lowest responsive, responsible bidder.
