Document Description
The project consists of upsizing approximately 4,500 linear feet of the Hollister Avenue Main from San Antonio Road to San Marcos Road. This work will replace the existing 10-inch steel pipeline installed in 1955 with a 16-inch ductile iron pipeline to accommodate increased flows from the new Hope Well. The project also includes installing the necessary service connections and valves to maintain allowable flow velocities and pressures. Upsizing the pipeline is necessary to safely convey increased groundwater production and allow the District to access the full delivery capacity of San Marcos and Hope wells.
