Project Details
Flatlick Sewer Rehabilitation Project Phase 1 & 2
Capital Facilities/Wastewater Design and Construction Division/Collections Branch
Description:
The Flatlick Sewer Rehabilitation Project included rehabilitation of approximately 2,500 linear feet of existing 24-inch
diameter pipe and 650 linear feet of existing 15-inch diameter pipe using the Cured in Place Pipe (CIPP) lining
method. The lining was cured using UV Light. In addition, 11 manholes were rehabilitated throughout the Flatlick
Branch stream valley in Chantilly, Virginia. This project was substantially complete on January 4, 2021.
Project Overview:
• Cured-in-place pipe lining (cured using UV light)
• Manhole rehabilitation using cementitious and epoxy coatings
• Bypass pumping system
• 3,000 linear feet of access road
• Permitting: US Army Corps of Engineers Nationwide Permit #12, Virginia Department of Transportation Land Use
Permit, Fairfax County Park Authority
• Challenge – maintaining access roads and bypass pumping operations during flooding events
