BACKGROUND: The project work included renovation and installation of 5,350 feet of

drilling, and by using pipe- bursting and open -cut methods at other locations. The work
involved reconnection of laterals, trenching, shoring, manhole installation, and paving.
Construction of sewers required close cooperation with customers for site access and
restoration. In accordance with the requirements of a JPA agreement with the City of
Martinez, replacement of 230 feet of existing storm drain with a new 18 -inch line in an
easement between Brown Street and Ulfinian Way was also completed. Additionally,
approximately 1,700 square yards of pavement overlay on Brown Street and Main
Street was completed as required by the JPA agreement. The City will reimburse the
District all costs associated with the storm drain and pavement overlay.
On August 5, 2010, the Board of Directors authorized the award of a contract for the
construction of the project to Precision Engineering, Inc. The Notice to Proceed was
issued on August 23, 2010. The project was substantially completed on November 29,
2010. The remaining items of work consist of minor punch -list items, which do not
affect the project acceptance.
