install the HDPE pipeline based on their experience with similar types of projects. On March 5 l ,<br />
ARB completed the insertion of the HDPE pipeline. <strong>District</strong> staff along with ARB has begun<br />
work to connect the HDPE pipeline to the existing pipelines on each side of Highway 24.<br />
Progress on the construction work has been good and staff expects to return the pipeline to<br />
service by the end of March, and restore the Chabot Road and Lake Temescal excavation sites by<br />
mid-April.<br />
Water service to customers in the affected pressure zones continues to be supplied through a<br />
secondary source. This source has limited capacity and can only meet customer demands through<br />
the end of March when water demands begin to increase. During the last week of February and<br />
into the first week of March, water demand in the affected pressure zones increased due to the<br />
dry and warm weather. Consequently, staff developed contingency plans in the event the supply<br />
through the secondary source was insufficient to meet customer demands. The recent wet and<br />
cooler weather has reduced demands in the affected pressure zones. No outreach to customers is<br />
needed at this time.<br />
