Agenda Item Summary:
At approximately 5:30am on the 14th of August, 2022, a building flood alarm signal was received from the SCADA system for the Ellsworth Mater Facility building, Initial investigation indicated that a catastrophic pipe break occurred under the facility, undermining the foundation and flooding the building, causing significant structural damage. This required that water service through the facility be shut off immediately, effectively terminating service to EAFB. Because of the emergency nature of the repairs, City staff contacted RCS Construction, Inc. and requested they stabilize the meter building and construct a water main bypass around the facility, in order to restore water service to EAFB. RCS was able to complete the stabilization and install the water main bypass, allowing water service to be restored to EAFB on August 22nd.
