(Atlantic, Iowa) – [CORRECTION ON DATE] The Atlantic City Council will hold a regular meeting beginning at 5:30-p.m. TUESDAY, March 5th, in the Council’s Chambers at City Hall. Among the items on agenda, is:
According to Wastewater Superintendent Tim Snyder, the line runs north of [the] Noddle site and south of Atlantic Carrier, from Ash down to 3rd Street Place. It was noted the bottom of the creek has eroded to the point where the sanitary sewer line is showing in spots along the stream bed, and some manhole covers are exposed.
City Administrator John Lund said previously, a dam was added on the east end to to the ditch back-in, and that helped a small portion. Snyder & Associates Engineers looked at doing a series of small dams, to allow sediment to fill back in on the western side, as well as moving the entire line away from the ditch. Both options would cost $500,000.
The option to line sections of the sanitary sewer under the creek and taking care of work on the exposed manhole is being proposed. The lining will increase the strength of the existing clay pipe & hopefully prevent it from being shattered, in which case the creek would flow into the line at some point, causing “Some potentially catastrophic backups in basements all the way to the plant,” according to the City. The Public Hearing is to allow feedback on the project.
