12/28/2017 - Land outfall drilling and pipe fusing

Project Update
Horizontal drilling and pipe fusing
Cardiff-by-the-Sea, CA December 28, 2017:
Construction work continues on the Land Outfall Replacement Project by the San Elijo Joint Powers Authority and general contractor, J.R. Filanc. Project information can be found at www.sejpa.blogspot.com.
Current project highlights and accomplishments include: 

  • On December 16th 2017, the first step (pilot bore) of the horizontal directional drilling was completed, establishing the subsurface path of the new pipeline.
  • On December 23rd 2017, the first reaming pass (28-inch diameter) to enlarge the pilot bore was completed.
  • Currently, a 42-inch reaming pass is in progress and anticipated to be completed the first week of January 2018. 
  • An aging sewer line has been replaced beneath Manchester Avenue and the trench is being backfilled, compacted, and prepared for final asphalt.
  • Approximately 2,000 feet of the new 2,500 foot, 30-inch diameter, land outfall pipeline has been fused and staged for installation at the San Elijo Water Reclamation Facility.
After the borehole has been reamed to the desired diameter (48-inch) and fusing is complete, the land outfall pipeline will be pulled underground through the borehole from the water reclamation facility to the beach.  Once installed, the contractor will connect the new land outfall to the existing ocean outfall system. Work will continue 24 hours a day, 6 days a week until the installation is complete.  Ongoing work in Manchester Avenue is expected through February 2018.

The San Elijo Joint Powers Authority is a local wastewater and recycled water agency serving the communities of Cardiff, Olivenhain, Solana Beach, Del Mar, and Rancho Santa Fe. This project will safeguard public health, protect the local environment, and preserve public recreation opportunities along the beaches of Encinitas, Cardiff, and Solana Beach. Thank you for your patience while we work to protect our community and coastline.
