OCWA’s installation phase of the new 8” water main along Farview Circle has been completed. We are moving into the testing and disinfection phase. At this point we will pressure test, disinfect, then sample the new water main to ensure that it was correctly installed and disinfected. This process could take between 1-2 weeks depending on when we receive Health Department approval. Construction activities will resume in the near future along Farview Circle.
Once we receive Health Department approval, we will begin switching over the water services from the old main to the new main. During this process you will notice a brief interruption of your water service (10-20 minutes).
The portion of main along Richlee Drive from Amity Drive to Braeside Lane will see normal construction activity. Once this section of main is completed, construction will switch back to Farview Circle. As this section of Richlee Drive will be pressure tested and disinfected as above.
Both D.E. Tarolli and OCWA would like to thank the residents for their patience during the construction phase. Please direct any questions to sjdrake@ocwa.org.
