The project was bid earlier this year, with Frontier-Kemper providing the low bid. The customer subsequently opted to re-bid the project, and Frontier-Kemper was again designated as the low bidder.

The scope of work involves installation of approximately 13,260 lineal feet of 78-inch welded steel water line (WSWL), 11,810 lineal feet installed inside a tunnel shored with bolted and gasketed pre-cast concrete tunnel segments. Approximately 490 lineal feet of microtunnel for 78-inch WSWL and approximately 960 lineal feet of 78-inch WSWL will be installed by cut-and-cover methods.
Work is expected to commence in October 2018 with substantial completion anticipated in December 2021. The contract value is expected to be included in the Companys third quarter 2018 backlog.
