Degrading Sewage Pipes an Opportunity for Contractors

The EPA estimates it will cost $390 billion over the next 20 years to repair or replace the crumbling wastewater infrastructure. Replacing infrastructure is costly, and in light of current economic conditions and worldwide budget cuts, often impossible to do. Alternatively, the use of single coat, fast cure high performance epoxy linings to rehabilitate sewage pipelines instead of replacing them will save municipalities considerable money and time, making it not only possible but practical for municipalities to protect their local environments today from sewage leaks.

Replacing infrastructure is costly, and in light of current economic conditions and worldwide budget cuts, often impossible to do. Alternatively, the use of single coat, fast cure high performance epoxy linings to rehabilitate sewage pipelines instead of replacing them will save municipalities considerable money and time, making it not only possible but practical for municipalities to protect their local environments today from sewage leaks. Contractors can assist municipalities in stretching their maintenance budgets and protecting the environment by offering their skills for high performance coating and lining application to local municipalities. In this paper we will highlight one such contractor that won the rehabilitation projects of 2 cities, Denham Springs, Louisiana and Coconut Creek, Florida and was able to economically solve each city’s corrosion protection and restoration needs.
