The Orchard Waterline Abandonment will abandon approximately 1400-feet of existing 12-inch waterline and one fire hydrant which have been determined to be hydraulically not necessary to the overall system.  Two excavations will be made on either side of I-25 to install piping which will abandon the existing waterline crossing underneath I-25.
