WATER DISTRIBUTION PROJECTS

SUB DISTRICT D WATER MAIN PROJECT

Cardinal designed this water main extension in 1998 to serve portions of Unincorporated Campbell County and Cold Spring.  A Commonwealth of Kentucky Community Development Block Grant, County/State grants, Customer surcharges, private support, and Water District bonds funded the project.  Due to elevation pressure constraints and the fact that some of the roadways were state maintained, the project predominately consisted of eight (8) inch ductile iron pipe with high-pressure fire hydrants.  In a few areas, C-900 PVC was able to be utilized. The project included 9.5 miles of water main (33,173 feet of 8" ductile iron pipe and 15,944 feet of 8 inch C-900 PVC) including multiple road and creek crossings.  The project consisted of complete design specifications, construction drawings, and record drawings. 

 

In 2002, Cardinal designed Phase V of this project.  The project consisted of twelve (12) and eight (8) inch ductile iron pipe with high-pressure fire hydrants.  The project included 1.7 miles of water main (7,882 feet of 12" ductile iron pipe and 1,023 feet of 8 inch ductile iron pipe) including multiple road and creek crossings.  The project is currently under construction and nearly complete.

 

RYLAND HEIGHTS WATER MAIN PROJECT 

Cardinal designed this water main extension in 1995 to serve portions of Ryland Heights, Fairview, and Unincorporated Kenton County and the Ryland Lakes County Club.  A Commonwealth of Kentucky Community Development Block Grant, the Cities of Fairview and Ryland Heights, Kenton County Water District Bonds, and tap fees funded the project.  Due to elevation pressure constraints and the fact that some of the roadways were state maintained, the project predominately consisted of eight- (8) inch ductile iron pipe with high-pressure fire hydrants.  In a few areas, C-900 PVC was able to be utilized. The project included 14 miles of water main (60,051 feet of 8-inch ductile iron pipe, 12,320 feet of 8" C-900 PVC, and 3,335 feet of 6-inch ductile iron pipe) including multiple road and creek crossings.  In a few locations, the water main crossed the CSX Railroad, which required the use of boring and jacking operations in order to accomplish the installation. The project consisted of complete design specifications, construction drawings, and record drawings.  The project was completed on time and within budget.  Phase V was recently bid and awarded in 2003.  The project is currently under construction.
