Insituform Technologies, Inc. (Nasdaq Global Select Market: INSU)
announced today that it was awarded $6.7 million in sewer pipe
rehabilitation work for Pell City, Alabama, which has used a grant from
the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009 to award the largest
CIPP project in Pell City’s history to Insituform. Under this contract,
Insituform will rehabilitate approximately 115,000 feet of sewer
pipelines in residential and rural areas. This contract also marks the
first time Insituform has worked with Pell City, Alabama.
Insituform® cured-in-place pipe (CIPP) will be used to
eliminate inflow and infiltration on the 25-year old small- to medium-
diameter sanitary sewers. Work on this project is expected to begin in
February 2010 and take approximately one year to complete.
Bobby O’Dell, General Manager for Insituform’s Central Region, remarked,
"Pell City has realized the value of a CIPP solution and we are proud to
partner with them for the first time on this historic CIPP project. I am
confident our processes and experienced project management team will
meet the City’s high expectations.”
The Insituform® CIPP process is Insituform’s core technology
and an affordable solution used to reduce infiltration, restore
structural integrity and increase flow capacity.
