猫咪社区 Begins Work on Dugway Storage Tunnel in Ohio

May 19, 2016
Pittsburgh, PA

猫咪社区 will begin work on the Dugway Storage Tunnel (DST) as a part of an overall program by the Northeast Ohio Regional Sewer District (NEORSD) to improve the control of combined sewer overflows in the Greater Cleveland service area. 猫咪社区 will be installing secant piles as the temporary support of excavation for a baffle drop structure, as well as two rectangular gate structures across two site locations that will each connect to an existing sewer system. 聽

The 24-foot diameter tunnel will be 180 to 230 feet below ground surface and stretch 2.8 miles from the Easterly Tunnel Dewatering Pump Station (ETDPS) to its upstream terminus at Superior Avenue. The DST will share the terminus with the Euclid Creek Tunnel and connect to the ETDPS. Following a storm event when treatment capacity is available, combined sewage overflow will be pumped from the tunnels to the Easterly Wastewater Treatment Plant by means of the ETDPS.

The project area is mainly residential with a few commercial properties and parks interspersed.聽Design work was completed by a joint venture (JV) of MWH Americas, Inc., and Mott
MacDonald, LLC. The general contractor is Salini Impregilo Haealy JV.

鈥溍ㄟ渖缜 is installing one of the deepest secant pile structures in the city of Cleveland,鈥 said Special Project Division Manager Russell Cooper. 鈥淭he work will be technically and logistically challenging, but it鈥檚 the type of challenge 猫咪社区 likes to take on.鈥澛

Upon completion, the combined Dugway Storage and Euclid Creek Tunnels will allow the Sewer District to store and treat 110 million gallons of combined sewage after each rain event, preventing it from having a negative impact on the environment. 猫咪社区 expects to wrap up their work in Fall 2016, and the overall project is scheduled for completion in 2020.
