NORTHSIDE INTERCEPTOR Wheaton Sanitary District-Smoke Testing of Sewers -Smoke testing of the sanitary sewers will begin on or around August 23, 2010 and will last for approximately 2 weeks. -Testing will be conducted by Baxter & Woodman Inc. -Smoke testing has been widely and safely used for many years and is an important tool used in controlling water pollution. -Smoke that will be used is non-toxic and leaves no residue. Exposure to the smoke for a short time is not harmful to most people. -If anyone in your household suffers from heart and/or lung disease such as emphysema and should never be exposed to smoke, please contact Baxter & Woodman immediately at (815) 459-1260 so that special arrangements can be made. -Baxter & Woodman will deliver door hangers to immediate residents a day or two prior to the actual testing. -If you have any questions regarding the upcoming work, please feel free to contact Baxter & Woodman Inc. SOUTHSIDE INTERCEPTOR REPLACEMENT PROJECT The Southside Interceptor will be a 48 inch diameter line, an average of 25 feet deep, and it will transport flow about 3 miles from the intersection of Main Street and Roosevelt Road to the wastewater treatment plant near Shaffner Road and Mack Road. It will replace two interceptors (a 24 inch diameter clay pipe and a 36 inch diameter corrugated metal pipe). Most of the line will be fiberglass pipe. However, one stretch, to be tunneled under Spring Brook Creek, the Illinois Prairie Path, and Plamondon Road will be concrete pipe. The new line will be located mainly in street rights-of-way. Maintenance access will be improved compared to the location of the lines to be replaced which are generally located in remote areas along Spring Brook Creek. Weekly meetings open to the public will be held each Tuesday morning at 7am at the District's main office. Click the link below for the weekly updates on the progress of the project.
