Over 12K feet of water line to be replaced in Clearfield County

CLEARFIELD COUNTY, Pa. (WTAJ) — Aqua Pennsylvania crews have begun to replace more than 12,000 linear feet of aging water mains.

This is taking place in the Treasure Lake community in Sandy Township as part of a replacement project. One fire hydrant will also be replaced to ensure performance in the event of a fire.

Aqua will stop service line connections to vacant lots which will help prevent leaks and improve ongoing overall system performance.

“This project is an example of our commitment to timely replacement of aging infrastructure,” Aqua Pennsylvania President Marc Lucca said. “It will help ensure that our drinking water flows reliably, not only for customers but also for emergency responders in the event of a fire.”

The water main replacements are taking place on the following streets:

• Forte de France (Between Santo Domingo to Address # 906 Fort de France)
• Santo Domingo Ct.
• Stirrup Ct. (Off of Santo Domingo Ct.)
• Desirade Rd. (Between Bay Rd. to Santo Domingo Ct.)
• Smugglers Rd. (Between Bay Rd. to Wharf Rd.)
• Jolly Rogers Rd. (Between Smugglers to Wharf Rd.)
