WW Clyde wins Victory Pipeline Phase I contract

WW Clyde has been awarded a contract to provide design assistance and construction services for $12m water transportation project Victory Pipeline Phase I, which will serve seven water districts in Duchesne County, US.

The project involves building a new water pipeline from Starvation Reservoir to Roosevelt City and also includes installation of 29 miles of 30in to 20in-diameter HDPE pipeline.

Construction on the project will begin immediately and is scheduled to be completed by the end of 2014. Additional work includes excavation and backfill, surface and wetland restoration and building crossings for the Duchesne River, canals and streams.

The project is described by the Utah Permanent Community Impact Fund Board as a necessary resource to provide increased capacity for Duchesne County’s economic and population growth.

WW Clyde president Jeff Clyde said: "This pipeline has been designed to fulfill water needs for Duchesne County for at least the next 50 to 75 years."

The first few months of the project will be dedicated to supporting Duchesne County’s design team by identifying and mitigating risk to the project, offering innovative solutions, providing ongoing estimates to help the owner keep the project in budget, and keeping a project schedule for design, construction and owner needs. WW Clyde said that this preconstruction support will reduce costs, improve quality and shorten the duration of construction.
