Blueprint North Linden 1 – Hudson/McGuffey Lateral Lining

This project will rehabilitate approximately 1,245 sanitary sewer service laterals in the project area via “trenchless” methods using cured-in-place pipe (CIPP) technology. Nelson Rd CIPP

The project is approximately bounded by East Weber Rd on the north, Hamilton Ave on the west, Hudson St on the South, and Cleveland Ave on the east.

The goal of this project is to reduce stormwater from entering the sanitary sewer system through leaky joints and cracks in lateral pipes.

Construction is expected to begin in first quarter of 2024, and be complete by the last quarter of 2025.

Each impacted resident will receive written notification from the City’s contractor prior of the lateral rehabilitation. The notifications will give specific information on the timing of the work, contact information, and a request to restrict water usage for a short period of time (approximately 4 hours) while the lateral is being lined.

Financing for this project is being provided through the Ohio Environmental Protection Agency’s Water Pollution Control Loan Fund Program with a below market-rate loan. Prior to granting this loan, the Ohio EPA required a detailed submittal from the Division of Sewerage and Drainage to determine the project’s eligibility.

The Ohio EPA has completed a Limited Environmental Review (LER) for this project. View the LER and the letter(PDF, 784KB) of "Notice of Issuance of a Final Finding of No Significant Impact to All Interested Citizens, Organizations and Government Agencies."
