On August 3, 2007, a televised inspection of the sewer under the sinkholes I <br /> was conducted by TeleScan Inc. Heavy debris was found consistent with a collapsed sewer. '� <br /> City crews were unable to clear the debris and open the sewer. The depth of the sewer �� <br /> exceeded the ability of City crews to excavate. Barr &Robison Sewer and Excavating was <br /> directed to dig to the pipe and determine its condition. <br /> Upon reaching the pipe it was found to have collapsed, with flow severely restricted. Barr& <br /> Robison was directed to replace approximately 20 feet of collapsed pipe thereby restoring the <br /> sewer into full service. <br /> The contractor's work commenced on August 7, and was completed on August 9, 2007. , <br /> POTENTIAL OBJECTION: There are no known objections to this <br /> resolution. <br /> INPUT FROM OTHER SOURCES: None <br />
