Sewer Grouting, Sewer Lining, Spot Repairs and a West Lincoln Highway Sanitary Sewer Improvement Project are scheduled for this summer.
The sewer lining project being carried on by Visu-Sewer is getting under way the last week of May and will continue into June and possibly July, depending on the weather. The work will include lining of select sections of sewer pipe (no digging).
Normally each section of sewer to be reconstructed will require up to a 24-hour period to complete. If the sewer main that services your home or business is to be lined, the sewer connection to your home or commercial establishment will be sealed off during this time. Consequently, you will be asked to make limited use of your toilet facilities and refrain from doing laundry for 24 hours.
If you are going to be affected by the work, you will receive a notice informing you of the date and time of your 24 hour limited water use period. Notifications will be hung on your door. If you do not receive such a notice, you do not need to change your water use.
