Upcoming Projects in 2010

Sunset & Sunrise Water Main Replacement.  Replacement of all water mains north of 8th Street via a trenchless technology known as Horizontal Directional Drilling.  Holes will be dug for each individual home's reconnection to the new water main.  Plans are currently under development.

Sanitary Sewer Main Lining - Insertion of a cured-in-place liner inside select sanitary sewer mains throughout the Holland BPW sewer service area.  This is a trenchless technology to rehabilitate old sanitary sewers without the costly excavation and lengthy disruption to public services.
