Reline Live Podcast

Take a listen to Reline LIVE with Cassie Jordan, CEO, Pipe Reline Solutions and Brogan Quist, Regional Manager, SmartCover for a lively chat to learn how a SmartCover system equips wastewater workers with the right tools to pinpoint inflow and infiltration (I&I) for target repairs and replacement. Today's smart sewer technology works in the background, silently keeping cities protected. From real-time, storm-proof communications to web-enabled dashboards and mobile apps, the easy to understand reports and notifications are preventing countless sewer overflows, manhole accidents and wasted field hours.

Join Cassie Jordan and Shane Scott, owner of SSA Environmental LLC, to learn how installing flexible culvert baffles is an easy and inexpensive method to improve fish passage through culverts. Salmon, trout, and other fish and aquatic species are often blocked from their habitat by poorly designed or constructed culverts. Repairing or removing culverts is costly and requires considerable time and resources. SSA has developed culvert baffles that improves fish passage in an effective and economic manner.

About Shane Scott:
Shane has over 30 years’ experience working with fish passage and water quality issues. He works with utilities and other industries in minimizing adverse effects of developments on fish and wildlife resources in a cost-effective manner. Shane has worked with Clients to development and implement a variety of fish and wildlife mitigation measures that are both biologically effective and cost efficient. He has also worked on some of the largest and most complex fish passage projects in North America.

Join Cassie Jordan with Rian McCaslin from Contech Engineered Solutions and Don LeBlanc, P.E. from DLVEWS. Rehabilitating or relining a drainage or sanitary pipeline or structure requires a site-specific analysis. There is no one-size-fits-all approach. Every reline project needs to be examined closely by qualified professionals. ContechES offers many products for reline and Rehabilitation, but this Reline LIVE we are going to focus specifically on their A2™ Liner Pipe and DuroMaxx®.

Join Cassie Jordan with Don LeBlanc. P.E. and Travis Stearns from C. L. H. & Son. Travis is a culvert sliplining contractor that will be giving us a look into what a sliplining job looks like from beginning to end. As our country's infrastructure ages, it’s necessary to monitor all culverts to make sure they are still performing the function they were designed to do and to prevent problems such as roadway sinkholes or flooding. Travis is going to walk us through what this process looks like from start to finish. Bring your questions. Don and Cassie will be discussing challenges they face when working with contractors on liners and what are some of the hurdles that they face on the day-to-day.

Join Cassie with Ryan Seastrunk and Kyle Olsen to talk about how URETEK preserves and rehabilitates pavement and infrastructure assets using advanced technology, superior chemistry, inventive technique, and above all, extensive experience. As pioneers in the industry of soil stabilization and pavement lifting, they have a wealth of knowledge that can be put to work for you on your very next job. We will take a look at some of the services and solutions they can provide with URETEK Deep Injection® (UDI) application.

This episode of Reline LIVE will focus on the injection grouting for stopping water infiltration and stabilizing soils of underground structures such as manholes, culverts, and tunnel shafts. The team from Avanti International – Chris Hamilton and Keith Sisson – will discuss what grouting is, grout type selection and design criteria, and real-world project examples.

Just like anything in the trenchless construction world, the feasibility of a culvert rehabilitation & reline project starts with high quality engineering. Recently, Don LeBlanc and Don McGriff spoke at the Transportation Research Board conference in D.C. on the topic of improving entrance losses and headwater conditions. In this version of Reline LIVE, you will hear from “the Dons” on their experience with helping owners and engineers out with their hydraulic concerns. They will discuss the various types of inlet modifications (including the HydroBell by ISCO/Snap-Tite) and how they have been modeled in various engineering programs.
