Manchester WD Glastonbury Main Ext

1. Notice of Scoping for the Manchester Water Department-Glastonbury Water Main Extension

Municipality where proposed project might be located: Glastonbury

Address of Possible Project Location: Cedar Ridge Drive

Project Description: The Manchester Water Department (MWD) is seeking financial assistance under the Drinking Water State Revolving Fund (DWSRF) program to support the extension of a water main on Cedar Ridge Drive in Glastonbury to serve approximately 10 properties that are currently served by private wells. Based on information provided by the Town of Glastonbury, these private wells contain elevated levels of naturally occurring uranium and pose a health risk to residents.   This project is intended to resolve a demonstrated public health concern at a scale which responds to the existing need without serving as an attraction to more extensive development. 

The proposed project includes the installation of approximately 465 linear feet of 8-inch diameter concrete lined ductile iron pipe (CLDIP) and associated appurtenances. The new main will be connected to the existing 6-inch diameter distribution main located on Cedar Ridge Drive.   The new main will be extended along Cedar Ridge Drive to the tip of the cul-de-sac to serve the homes with contaminated wells.
