Potts Ditch Storm Sewer
Greenfield, Indiana
Potts Ditch is a partially encapsulated stream located in the heart of Greenfield, and the enclosed infrastructure, constructed over a century ago, was reaching the end of its useful life. Portions of the enclosed ditch were located underneath and adjacent to existing buildings that put these structures at risk. Also, it was undersized and contributed to flooding in the downtown area. The recommended plan included installation of 2,000 lft of new 14-foot-wide by 6-foot-deep box culvert, construction of approximately 2,600 lft of sanitary sewers, abandonment of the existing ditch, and relocation of utilities water mains and storm sewers. Improvements also included new pavement, curb, gutter, sidewalks and drive approaches. The project included topographic survey, subsurface utility engineering, geotechnical investigations as well as coordination with IDNR, IDEM, USACE, INDOT, and utility companies.

Design also included developing a sequence of construction to install the proposed facilities while maintaining existing operations and minimizing the need for bypass pumping. American Structurepoint also assisted the City in obtaining bids for the construction of these improvements and provided construction administration and inspection where the team reviewed submittals and pay applications, responded to contractor questions, assisted with change orders, and oversaw the work to ensure conformance with the contract documents.
