TIMBER RIDGE WATER SYSTEM UPGRADE PROJECT STATUS:

 

Project Status Report - December 18, 2010

  • Construction:  The Water Quality Advisory has been lifted! 

    The signs have been taken down and the community now has safe, treated water.  As we describe in Project Report #3, homeowners should now thoroughly flush the pipes in their homes prior to any consumption.  The contractor will return in the spring to complete some clean up around the new building.

Project Status Report - December 1, 2010

  • Construction:  The water meter chamber and surrounding watermains on the south side of Timber Ridge Road have been installed. Testing of this portion of the watermain is currently underway.  Once testing is complete, BWC will connect the Timber Ridge water system to Parr’s.  The Water Quality Advisory will not be lifted until the RDEK completes flushing and performs testing on the entire Timber Ridge system.

  • Construction:  BWC has completed the watermain installation at the intersection of Timbermont Drive and Lakeview Drive.  Delivery of the water meter chamber, which will be installed on the south side of Timber Ridge Road, is scheduled to arrive tomorrow, Saturday, November 6.  BWC intends to work Saturday and Sunday to install the meter chamber and related watermains.

Project Status Report - October 22, 2010
