Piper Ridge Water System Improvements

Winhall, Vermont

DuBois & King performed an engineering evaluation and design of improvements for the Piper Ridge water system in Winhall, Vermont. The original 25-year-old water system served an 89-unit residential development and was in need of improvements to comply with State standards.

Services provided during the preliminary engineering phase investigations included identifying deficiencies and alternatives for improvements, establishing an opinion of probable costs, screening potential funding alternatives, and developing an implementation schedule. The findings, conclusions, and recommendations were summarized in a Preliminary Engineering Report. Objectives of the design emphasized establishing cost-effective solutions to avoid the need to construct additional water storage volume, replace/upsize large portions of the distribution system, or to construct costly chlorine contact time improvements.
