WLC Engineering and Surveying was hired by the City of Casper to provide construction administration services to replace aging water mains with corrosion problems, main breaks and upsize some pipes. Responsibilities included construction observation, resident project representative inspection, materials testing, field surveying, review and preparation of construction pay estimates, record drawings, submittal review, and coordination between the City staff and contractor. This project also included the replacement of curb and gutter to increase flow capacity, updating ADA ramps, replacing storm sewer lateral and catch basins. Prior to construction, WLC identified the need to replace the existing storm sewer manholes in 17th Street. The poor shape of the existing brick manholes would not allow for replacement of the laterals without a possibility of the manhole caving in during construction. This solution provided a safer and more effective installation.
