Status Report on District’s sewer The Director of Engineering
rehabilitation program for the reviewed the status of the
backbone Pacific Coast Highway District’s rehabilitation program
sewer system for the backbone Pacific Coast
sewer system.
Mr.Dawes advised the Directors that many projects have taken place
over the past eight years in Pacific Coast Highway.County Sanitation
District No.5 (CSD 5)has completed the rehabilitation or replacement
of the dual force main system beginning at the Bay Bridge Pump Station,
located on the east side of the Upper Newport Bay crossing of Pacific
Coast Highway,to Treatment Plant No.2 in Huntington Beach.(The
last of this work was recently completed with the construction of a new
second siphon under the Santa Ana River as part of the Corps of
Engineers’reconstruction of the Santa Ana River flood control channel.)
He further reported that CSD 5 operates three sewers within Pacific
Coast Highway;the dual force main system plus a gravity sewer.(CSD 6
also owns capacity in these lines.)The gravity sewer directs
wastewater to one of three pump stations which then pressurize the
water to enter the dual force main system for delivery to Plant No.2.
The gravity sewer,ranging in size from 30 inches internal diameter to
21 inches internal diameter,extends from Dover Drive to the Bitter
Point Pump Station (at 59th Cextended]).The gravity sewer was built
by the City of Newport Beach in 1936.

Mr.Dawes noted that staff has known for some time that the sewer would
have to be replaced because of age and increased flows0 The 1989
Master Plan estimated that the new gravity sewer would range from
42 inches to 30 inches in size with replacement cost estimated at
$4.3 million0 (CSD 6 will share this cost0)He advised that the sewer
replacement had previously been budgeted for the period 1995-97;
however,the Master Plan had estimated that the work should be done in
1992-93.He further stated that recently,as part of the replacement
of the dual force main system,staff uncovered the sewer and found it
to be in poor structural condition.Because of this9 the Directors
last year authorized a television camera inspection of the sewer which,
in fact9 found that the 57 year-old sewer is in very poor condition.
Mr.Dawes then showed a brief video of the damage and conditions inside
the sewer.
Mr.Dawes also reviewed a schedule of District collection system
projects included in the 1991—92 budget,as well as an updated schedule
which had been prepared that day by the Director of Finance.He
briefly explained some of the reasons that the new schedule reflected a
decrease in the estimated cost of some of the projects.
The Director of Engineering pointed out that the Directors were well
aware that in addition to the numerous sewer rehabilitation projects,
Pacific Coast Highway itself has been rebuilt between the Santa Ana
River and Newport Boulevard,He added that the District wished to
proceed with replacement of the gravity sewer with minimal interference
and disruption to the new Pacific Coast Highway corridor.They also
hoped to complete the sewer work easterly of Newport Boulevard prior to
highway reconstruction planned by CALTRANS and.the City of Newport
Beach.
Staff also briefed the Board on the potential impact of the Governor’s
proposal to eliminate the Districts’property tax revenues on the
Districts’financing.
Discussion
The Board entered into a lengthy discussion relative to the proposed
rehabilitation program and the best timeframe to construct each of the
projects,and coordination of the projects between the District,City
of Newport Beach and CALTRANS.Directors also pointed out the pros and
cons of doing the construction work at night versus during the day to
avoid the busiest traffic times on Pacific Coast Highway.
Directors asked staff to report back to the Board with plans to
accelerate the necessary design of the needed repairs and sewer
replacement projects in order to complete the work as soon as possible
because of the poor condition of the gravity sewer,
