Turkey Creek Ph 2 - Interceptor


7:11am- crew will pull test balls from here a MH E54 and move up line to finish out testing today. 

8:01am- lune now on test from MH E55-E56. Approximately 33 min test. 

8:34am- line passes air test from E55-E56. 
10:24am- crew has been trying to get MH E55 vacuum tested, but will need to dig it up and place more ramnek on flat top meeting barrel section. 

11:29am- manhole is now dug around and wire is pulled back so flat top can be removed. 

11:41removing old ram nek. 

12:51pm- MH E55 now passes vacuum test. 

1:45pm- backfill back around MH E55 almost finished. 

4:00pm- drove through project this afternoon to start a punch list although its way early for it. Some strapping for pipe is present still, manhole heights are an issue being to low in a few spots. General cleanup and grading is required on the majority of the project yet. 
I also spoke with Scott Bailey to begin addressing these issues and other outstanding items like seed and straw, camera and mandreling, etc. all line testing is now completed except for vacuum testing MH E56 due to it not having the larger 36” lid on it yet. 

Examples of issues;
