In accordance with § 202-b of New York State Town Law,the following Engineering Report has
been prepared for the Town Board's consideration for the improvement of facilities.
The Queensbury Water Department requests that the Town Board grant permission for the
replacement of approximately 1500 LF of Cast Iron Water Main, installed in the early 1960's,
with 1500 LF of 8" Ductile Iron Water Main.This particular stretch of water main has been
plagued by several service interruptions over the past decade. It is thought to be related to
poor backfill material placed around the water main.The water main will be replaced in kind
starting at approximately 229 Cronin Rd. and continue easterly to the intersection of Cronin
and Ridge Rd.The install will include the removal of one hydrant, the installation of 2 new
hydrants along with three new valves. Proper bedding and backfill will be placed.
A temporary water main will be placed and disassembled upon satisfactory completion and
testing of new main.Site will be restored to preconstruction conditions.
It is estimated that 12 ccd will be required to complete this project, inclusive of restoration at a
probable cost of$175,000.This project shall be funded from the Water Department's Fund
balance and will have no impact on existing customers of the Consolidated Water District.
SEQRA considers this a Type 2 Action. No review is necessary as this project is essentially
maintenance.
A map of the location and a history of breaks has been attached.
