This project won the AZ Water 2021 Wastewater System Project of the Year Award. B&F provided CMAR services to rehabilitate 3.1 miles of 24-inch DIP force main aligned on the west side of I-10 and W Ray Rd. The project included many tight corridors as it runs through the Arizona Grand Resort and ADOT ROW. The original pipeline was installed in 1974 and developed serious issues due to H2S corrosion, which was discovered in 2016. During the design phase, B&F participated in evaluating various design methods, determining that HDPE slip lining would be the best selection. B&F developed a cost-saving approach on slip-lining pulls, saving the City over $60,000 in mechanical fittings, slurry, and construction time. The project also consisted of a tight section of open cut to replace the end portions of each pipeline. B&F performed 90% of the removals and installation of pipe along with all other aspects of this project.
