Relocation Considered For County Home Water Line

Athens County commissioners learned they may spend several thousand dollars to move a county home water pipeline that crosses Sunday Creek. County Engineer Gerald Hann says the exposed section risks rupture from debris and construction near the bridge on Route 13, potentially cutting water to the county home and endangering the bridge. The pipe, installed in 1972 to supply water for a fire sprinkler system, may be reburying or bridge-hanging as remedies. ODOT officials note installation plans were not followed and formal permission from ODOT would be needed to attach the pipe to the bridge. The board will seek ODOT approval, with no decision yet on the repair method or contractor liability.
