Elk River <br /> Municipal Utilities UTILITIES COMMISSION MEETING <br /> TO: FROM: <br /> Elk River Municipal Utilities Commission Eric Volk—Water Superintendent <br /> John Dietz—Chair <br /> Al Nadeau—Vice Chair <br /> Daryl Thompson—Trustee <br /> MEETING DATE: AGENDA ITEM NUMBER: <br /> January 10, 2017 5.3 <br /> SUBJECT: <br /> Highway 10 Water Main Project <br /> BACKGROUND: <br /> The Minnesota Department of Transportation (MNDOT) has planned to rebuild Highway 10 <br /> from Waco Street to Proctor starting in 2017 and finishing in 2018. They are widening the <br /> highway and replacing the bridge over the Elk River. <br /> DISCUSSION: <br /> After many meetings with MNDOT, it has been decided that we will be relocating 900 feet of <br /> water main between Simonet Drive and Xenia Avenue due to the need of additional storm water <br /> treatment. We will also be lining 1,050 feet of water main between Gary Street and Simonet <br /> Drive to meet MNDOT compliance with their reinforced soil slope designs. We will be incurring <br /> some costs in 2017 that were unbudgeted. The 2017 budget has $80,000 set aside for facility <br /> maintenance. We will be utilizing some of that money in 2017 to relocate the 900 feet of water <br /> main. The relining project will occur in 2018, which we will budget for next year. The work that <br /> will need to be completed does not have an effect on rates, and should not affect reserves. <br /> ACTION REQUESTED: <br /> None <br /> ATTACHMENTS: <br /> • Highway 10 Water Main Project Area <br /> ? ® MERE / BY® Page 1 of 1 INATUP11 <br /> Reliable PublicPo <br /> Power Provider POWERED T o S ERV E <br /> 131 <br />
