ABSTRACT
The Washburn Second Feedermain Project is a 900 mm (36 in) diameter potable water feedermain that will extend a total of 3,923 m (2.4 mi) and will provide additional supply and redundancy to Halton Region’s (Ontario, Canada) water network. The new 900 mm (36 in) diameter feedermain interconnects with the existing 1,050 mm (42 in) diameter Washburn Feedermain which is currently the primary supply of water to the Washburn Reservoir and Pumping Station. The interconnection between large diameter critical feedermains presents several design, construction, and commissioning challenges. This paper presents the process and challenges associated with designing, constructing, and commissioning the interconnections between the existing and new large diameter feedermains.
