The TRA sewer line project work continues. Crews have been installing bypass lines in order topump the flow around the damaged pipe. They are now ready to start replacing the main pipe
sections. To minimize the time that the pumpsneed to run, they will have two crews workingnon-stop during the week. They expect toaverage sixsections perday andhave about21 sectionsto replace.
All rangeswill beclosed allday duringthe week.The pipesections areb e i n g
brought in from behind the rifle and pistol ranges. Thepumps are also located there and must be frequentlymonitored/refueled. Vehicles and equipment will be movingaround in front of the shotgun range all day.
The current plan is that they will continue not working onweekends, so all ranges should be open then as usual.However, they will still need to check the pumps every coupleof hours. This will cause some temporary cease fires on allranges, so please cooperate when these occur.
