The project involves the installation of two horizontal directional drills at 2785 Pinecrest Drive, Southport, NC 28461. The work includes installing a 6” water line approximately 250 feet in length and a 4” sewer force main approximately 500 feet in length, as well as abandoning an existing 4” force main approximately 150 feet in length. The contractor shall pressure test, flush, chlorinate, perform a bacteriological test, and connect the new lines to existing infrastructure. The existing sewer line shall remain in operation during the installation of the directional drill and will only be shut down for the final connections. Key aspects of the project include: • Installing HDPE high-density polyethylene, extra high molecular-weight, PE3408 pressure rated 200PSI, minimum DR-9, as manufactured by Plexco or equal using horizontal directional drilling methods • Reconnecting using open-cut methods at each end of the directional drill, incorporating all necessary fittings and bends to ensure a complete and secure tie-in to the existing water or sewer line • Pressure testing, chlorinating, and performing BAC-T tests on the water line • Abandoning the existing section of sewer force main pipe by filling it completely with flowable fill • Establishing traffic control during the performance of the work, ensuring measures are in place for safety and all compliance requirements • Seeding and mulching the site to BCPU standard specifications and establishing sufficient vegetation to stabilize the disturbed areas
