Reinach 90,000-gallon cast-in-place concrete tank                     01/25/19

Project Description and Cost Detail        

Scope Described

Replace the two 30,000-gallon steel tanks which failed inspection during 2018 with one 90,000-gallon cast in place concrete tank.  This project will comply with the NH DES water storage requirements as well as create the Reinach Pressure Zone which is needed to supply adequate pressure to the houses at the higher elevations near the Reinach tank.  

Creation of the Reinach Pressure Zone will impact houses located on the upper section of Aspen, Bristenstock, Reinach, Biasca, and Adelboden are all impacted by reduced pressure; 30-35 houses.

This proposal is the lowest cost alternative for replacing the water storage tanks and creation of the Reinach Pressure Zone.
