Document Description
The existing Water Treatment Plant (WTP) at Heber Dunes SVRA currently relies on Wi-Fi to save and record data, which is unreliable. This project will install a ¾-inch PVC conduit from the WTP to the park's main office. This will require an approximately 46' trench that is 1' wide by 1.5' deep to be dug between the buildings in the maintenance yard. Electrical conduit will be installed in the trench and covered by native backfill and base material to mirror the surrounding area. District standard project requirements have been incorporated into the project and can be obtained from the project contact.
