The Borough of Pennsbury Village was awarded a Grant for $229,000 to finance a sanitary sewer relining project. Insight Pipe Contracting has won the low bid on our project.

For the past two weeks, Insight has performed phase one of the project which included cleaning, measuring and video recording of our sanitary sewer lines. Liners are now being manufactured and installation will begin on Thursday, July 3rd.

These new liners will be installed in the main sewer lines between each manhole. Nothing is being installed in the laterals that run from the buildings to the manholes. There is no work being done on our fresh drinking water lines.

Insight Pipe will be delivering information cards to buildings the day before they will be affected by the liner installations. Please follow their instructions. Failure to do so could cause a sewer backup into your unit. Minor “No Parking” areas will be posted the afternoon before the spaces are needed for the installers.

There will be a resin-like odor in the area as the liners cure. The odor is not harmful but could get into your home if there is something not quite right with your plumbing.

Installation is scheduled to be completed by July 25th.
