Summary:
Extension of California Water Service (Cal Water) water lines is required to provide service to Phase 2 of the Civic Center Project. The City has opted to perform a large portion of the work utilizing the project general contractor, Seals Construction. However, Cal Water still requires a portion of the work to be performed by them (see Cal Water Request for Payment, attached). The scope of work to be performed by Cal Water includes all connections to their existing water mains, all new irrigation and domestic service piping on Burke from the existing water main to the property line, connection to existing water main in School St, connection of new main in Goshen Ave. to the existing main, and all new fire hydrants on Burke Street. The scope of work to be completed by Seals construction consists of installing the new water main in Goshen Avenue, the new water main to be installed within the site that interconnects the main in Burke and the new main in Goshen, all new service piping in Goshen, and all new fire hydrants on Goshen Avenue.
