Engineering Report: Rising Main Rehabilitation Begins in Highland Park

This project, part of our Water Reliability Plan, is the first of several once-in-a-generation projects that will renew key components of our water production and distribution systems.
Project overview: Rising Main 3 Rehabilitation Project overview: Rising Main 3 Rehabilitation

In mid-February, Rising Main 3, a large-diameter water main in Highland Park, was taken out of service for rehabilitation.

This project, part of our Water Reliability Plan, is the first of several once-in-a-generation projects that will renew key components of our water production and distribution systems. These projects will take place over the next several years.

The rehabilitation of Rising Main 3 will improve the reliability of our water system and improve hydraulic performance to distribute water throughout the system. This large pipe carries water from the Bruecken Pump Station to the covered Highland II Reservoir. The nearby Rising Main 4 will also undergo rehabilitation in 2023. We will invest nearly $12 million in both projects.
