Water Engineering:
Distribution and Conveyance
WEI has designed of many capital improvement water line extentions. Projects have included pressure water mains and gravity flow lines up to 30" in diameter, aerial lines over drainageways and rivers, directional bores both with and without casing pipe under highways, canals, and congested utility corridors. Designs include new and replacement lines and connections, temporary surface lines, open trench and pipe bursting, meters, system interconnections, PRV's and PSV's, air release valves, and associated facilities such as tanks and booster stations.
Selected Projects

32 Road Waterline: Phase 2 Design,
Mesa County, CO
Involved approximately 9000 LF of 12"
waterline, two directional bores with steel
casing, one under a
CDOT Hwy and
another under a canal, combination air
valves, & misc work. Project is in CDOT
ROW.

 

1998, 1999, & 2000 Waterline
Replacement Projects, Grand Jct., CO
In three projects, each consisting of many
upgrade locations, designed over 46,500
lineal feet of both open trench and pipe
bursting waterline. Involved design and
coordination of over 800 service
switchovers and many main reconnections.
Part of the project was in interstate
businesss loop I-70B.


 

Raw Water Supply, Central City, CO
Design of over six mile raw water supply
line for the mountain community of
Central City in an old 15' easement that
the Forest Service would not allow to be
expanded for waterline reconstruction,
even temporarily for construction except at
only a few locations for staging and turn-
around. Special design considerations were
track mounted rock trenchers, fusion
bonded HDPE pipeline, and other special
provisions for environmental protection.

32 Road Waterline: Phase 1 Segments A,
B, and C Design & Segment B
Construction Services, Mesa County, CO
Provided design and construction
engineering and inspection services on
project involving 11,263 LF 10" through
12" waterline, 759 LF directional bore,
297 pipe suspended on CDOT bridge,
combination air valves, an interconnection
between two water purveyors, & misc
work. Project is in CDOT ROW.

Peach Street Reconstruction: Phase II,
Fruita, CO
As part of designing road reconstruction,
designed 2116' of waterline with 8 services,
and provided construction oversight.

South Avenue Reconstruction 5th St. to
9th St., Grand Junction, CO
As part of roadway redesign, designed new
waterline with fire hydrants. Special
challenges were other utilities in the same
street - two active waterlines, 24", 21", &
15" parallel combined sewers with design
of combined sewer separation using
existing lines plus a new 48" storm drain,
medium pressure 10" and high pressure
12" gas lines, two banks of underground
electric, overhead high voltage lines,
irrigation pipeline, and underground
telephone, all in 80' of R.O.W.
