City of Campbellsville receives $6,593,000 infrastructure loan Loan will be used to upgrade water system which serves 10,000 customers. Construction is scheduled to start October 2017 and to be completed one year later Click on headline for complete story From Commonwealth News Service The City of Campbellsville received one of three loans approved by the Kentucky Infrastructure Authority (KIA) at KIA's June 2017 meeting. Campbellsville’s application for a Fund F loan in the amount of $6,593,000 to make system-wide improvements to the city’s water supply was approved by the KIA board. The system is plagued with inefficient operations that demand costly maintenance for the only supplier of drinking water for nearly 10,000 customers. The project includes improvements to the water treatment plant as well as the urban area of the distribution system to upgrade and repair various aging, undersized or inadequate infrastructure throughout the system. The treatment plant portion of the project includes improvements to the mechanical and electrical components of the system including the clarifier filter control console; valve replacements; raw water meter vault improvements; upgrades to the pre-filter chlorination processes; and improvements to two high service pumps to allow an increase of capacity to 3,300 gallons per minute. The distribution system improvements include the replacement of aging and deteriorated cast iron pipe, some of which were originally installed in the 50s, with six-inch PVC pipe in several areas throughout the city. The heavily corroded pipe is difficult to repair and results in diminished capacity and reduced system pressures during demand periods. The line replacement will directly improve service for 46 existing underserved customers while hundreds of others will see improved service. Construction is scheduled to start in October of 2017 and be completed a year later. This story was posted on 2017-06-13 17:15:18
