Gloucester Street Feedermain Sliplining |
In 1997, the Region of Ottawa-Carleton
identified the existing 914 mm watermain in Gloucester Street as a
candidate for rehabilitation. The 1.3 kilometer watermain had failed
twice in recent years; once in 1981 and again in 1992, both
resulting in significant damage.
The project proceeded to construction in April, 1999 and was
completed by July 1999. A number of benefits were derived from the
project including: 1) improved water system reliability, 2) significant
capital and social cost savings and recognition for selecting an
innovative approach to the problem, 3) less disruption to community,
4) minimal impact on traffic & roadway, 5) environmental impact
reduced, 6) new rehabilitation technique developed.

Glen
Cairn Trunk Sewer Pilot Biofilter |
The Glen
Cairn Trunk Sewer has been a source of odours since it was put into
service in 1998. High concentrations of hydrogen sulphide gas have
historically been observed at the manholes near its upstream end.
Robinson Consultants, in conjunction with the Ainley Group and Odor
and Corrosion Technology Consultants Inc., was commissioned to operate and monitor the pilot biofilter on
behalf of the City of Ottawa. The monitoring will permit
the optimal performance criteria to be used in the design of the
permanent biofilter, which is to be constructed at the same location
as the pilot biofilter.

Assessment, Rehabilitation and Replacement of Three Large |
|
|
Diameter Feedermains in the City of Ottawa |
The
“A”, “B” and “C” watermains are three of the most important and
among the oldest large diameter feedermains in the City of Ottawa’s
water distribution system. They are the sole supply pipes conveying
water from the Lemieux Island Water Purification Plant and
ultimately supply 60% of the City`s population. The City of Ottawa’s
potable water supply system dates to 1874 and now includes two
large water purification plants and a distribution network comprised
of over 2400 km (1500 miles) of pipe supplying a population of over
804,000 people.
The
study was initiated and undertaken in recognition of the inherent
risks stemming from uncertainty about the condition and structural
integrity of the ageing pipes. In addition, the study stems
from a need to provide additional capacity for future growth, to
accommodate urban renewal objectives in proximity to the location of
the existing pipes and to enhance operational flexibility.
