Cheltenham WTP – 10-Inch Water Line Leak Repair

Key Accomplishments

• Field verification determined that the affected pipe was actually 10 inches in diameter.
• Completed the water-line repair assignment under Maryland Environmental Service’s purchase-order contract.
• Johnston Construction Company was contracted directly by Maryland Environmental Service to repair a leak in an existing water line at the Cheltenham Water Treatment Plant in Cheltenham, Maryland.
• The original purchase order identified the affected line as 12 inches in diameter. During the work, additional field investigation was required to verify the existing piping, and the line was subsequently confirmed to be 10 inches in diameter. Maryland Environmental Service amended the purchase order to reflect the corrected pipe size and the additional effort required for field verification.
• JCC completed the assigned water-line repair under the amended purchase order. Because detailed project specifications and construction drawings are not available for this assignment, specific repair fittings, excavation procedures, shutdown sequencing and testing procedures are not represented in this project summary.
• Johnston Construction Company provided Maryland Environmental Service with responsive field verification and repair services to address the leaking 10-inch water line and restore the affected water-system infrastructure at the Cheltenham facility.
• The Project Was Completed On 9th June, 2014.
