The City of Effingham recently began construction on a watermain replacement project along Mulberry Street, Lawrence Avenue, Linden Street, Clark Avenue, and Franklin Avenue.  These areas were experiencing multiple watermain breaks and discolored water due to the aging undersized cast iron line. 

The contractor, Kieffer Bros, will replace 4,995 lineal feet of the old watermain with new 8” PVC pipe. The City will utilize $500,000 in DCEO CDGB grant funds to offset the total cost of the project.  Milano & Grunloh  Engineers, LLC provided design engineering, construction engineering and grant administration for the project.  We would like to thank the City of Effingham for allowing us to be a part of this project.
