Bob White Drive Pipe Rehabilitation Project	5	$148,389	The Bob White Drive Pipe Rehabilitation project includes rehabilitating approximately 887 linear feet of existing corrugated metal pipe and installing new storm inlets to improve drainage in the area. The pipe lies within a County drainage easement located near 527 Bobwhite Court in the Quail Run Subdivision off Nine Mile Road. The pipe is directly beneath a privacy fence so access to remove and replace the pipe is limited. Due to its location, installing a cured-in-place pipe liner is the only viable option. The estimated cost for this project is $187,000. Total amount to transfer from LOST III is $148,389. The balance, $38,611, will come from Master Drainage Basin Fund VI funds. Construction is expected to begin in June or July 2017 after the bidding process is completed.
