Completed final inspection of 24" sanitary sewer with Toho water authority. Continued clearing necessary limbs, brush, etc for 48" pipe run. Formed and poured 35' of 8" sidewalk along lakeshore drive. Williams concrete poured and formed sidewalk/10 cy. Returned air compressor. Returned 8" vacuum pump.
Met with Thompson pump to measure and confirm set up next week for sewer bypass. 8" pump was proposed but after meeting with Toho lift station personnel, it will have to be done with 12" pumps. The peak flow levels are too high for an 8" pump to be comfortable. Existing 24" sewer runs half to 3/4 full. Toho said they could shut down two lift stations upstream long enough for us to plug the line. Lab contractor for city is not preforming at a level for us to backfill and get above the water line. Talked to city inspector (Butch) about the situation today. They did finally show up at 5pm today and we had two lifts pass, but due to rain the other lifts were too wet. He was supposed to be there at 11am.
Problems: heavy rain prevented us from pouring valley gutter and densities on one section of backfill.
set up to test sewer lines. Test all lines passed. Concrete men formed sidewalk and poured RAIN! Rained 3 times and a lot. Pumped out water hole and broke down big pump 8" sent 8' pump back to Thompson pump. Waited on density man till 5. He got here in a rain storm. Test line between between #1 and #2. Bottom and next 2 lifts passed. Did not test between 3-2 too wet. Took test plugs back to yard.
