08-19-19 Cardinal Way Subdivision Project Update

Written by

The village closed and the builder started construction at Lots 3 and 5 with pouring of the foundations! To view the most recent video click here.

Completed the week of August 12, 2019

  1. Contractor working on final street preparation.
  2. Contractor working on deceleration/acceleration lanes.
  3. Alliant Energy installed 3 phase main line near the Cardinal Way entrance.
  4. Charter Communications on site installing utility near Cardinal Way entrance.  Charter is essentially working with Alliant for sharing the installation of their utility.

Anticipated schedule for the week of August 19, 2019

  1. Alliant Energy installing utility in the subdivision early next week.  Alliant Energy did not get as far as they projected this week due to wet conditions.
  2. Charter Communications on site installing utility in the subdivision.  Again, Charter is working with Alliant.
  3. Charter Communications – regarding the existing poles and the service along C.T.H. ‘HHH’, Charter will have an outage in the transfer of the utility.  Charter has to provide a 30 day notice because of all the municipalities affected (Area from Ridgeway to Cassville).  The existing Charter wire on the poles and the Charter service on the ‘mound’ at the intersection cannot be disturbed until after the 30 day notice.  Ultimately, this means the final landscaping and grading along ‘HHH’ will not be completed until after Charter is through.
  4. Final street preparation by Iverson Construction.
  5. Iverson Construction on site mid-to-late in the week to install hot mix asphalt.
  6. Contractor will be completing deceleration/acceleration lanes.
  7. Contractor will be working on final grading and landscaping following utility companies completing their installations.

08-13-19 Wastewater Treatment Plant Project Update

Written by

Summary of Last Month’s Work

  • Staab has continued work on the Control Building. On the interior of the building, most of the lighting has been installed. All cabinetry, doors, and windows have also been installed. Finally, most of the HVAC system and plumbing is in place.
  • Additionally, all of the necessary wastewater process equipment is installed in the building in preparation for startups throughout the month.

 

Upcoming Month Schedule

  • Looking ahead, construction will continue on the Control Building, including minor interior work such as painting, caulking, and cleaning. Cellular and telephone service will be secured for facility operation. HVAC and plumbing systems will be finalized.
  • Equipment startups began at the beginning of August and are going smoothly. Startups will progress over the course of the month with commissioning of the plant at the end of the month.

Overall Schedule

  • WWTF operational 10/1/19
  • Final Completion 12/31/19


The site began as a sludge lagoon.
The lagoon was drained in order to begin excavation and backfill to create a site suitable for construction of the proposed upgrades.

The package plant constructed with piping, handrails, and grating.

Activated Sludge Package Plant
The package plant was constructed first due to its elevation. This structure consists of a series of tanks that use biological processes to treat wastewater. Screened wastewater flows into the package plant, and treated effluent from the package plant flows to the disinfection system. The photos below show a progression of the construction.

 

Control Building

The Control Building houses the operator’s office and much of the equipment for facility operations. The Control Building also contains the screening room, where wastewater first enters the facility. A mechanical screen removes debris from the wastewater prior to it entering the package plant.

The Control Building foundations being constructed.

Laborers pouring a portion of the concrete slab.

 The Control Building with framing and some roofing installed.

The Control Building with roofing, siding, and doors installed.
