Crystal Peak Road - Watermain Replacement for Fire Protection

Replacement of 2300 linear feet of 6-inch water main with new 8-inch water main and increase quantities of fire hydrants to meet 2018 IFC code requirements. This project is a continuation of the multi-year program to replace 1960's era thin wall steel water mains and other deficient water mains. We also work closely with the North Lake Tahoe Fire Protection District to determine areas of low fire flow, which may indicate a need for increased capacity in that area. Project improves water supply enhancing fire protection capabilities on private, local, state, and federal lands by increasing fire flow volumes and coverage area.
