Eversource Municipal Liaison

Eversource: State, Municipal and Utility Coordination Services for Bare Steel/Cast Iron Replacement Program, Connecticut Department of Transportation and Amtrak

Client/Owner: Eversource 

As a result of a federal initiative to reduce risks associated with operating a gas distribution system and as part of a recent rate case requirement in which the Public Utility Regulatory Authority (PURA) mandated that Yankee Gas (now Eversource) aggressively remove aging infrastructure, the utility has invested in an ambitious fifteen year replacement plan for all of its bare steel and cast iron gas mains throughout Connecticut - approximately 520 miles of main – and Freeman Companies is acting as Eversource’s liaison for the Program.

In order to minimize customer inconvenience, expedite the replacement process and minimize costs, close coordination between Eversource and each municipality has been paramount; Freeman Companies has been scheduling and coordinating meetings with all stakeholders from each of the affected municipalities and public agencies (Municipal Officials, Public Works, Engineering, Local Utility Departments, etc.) and has documented and mapped all current and future roadway paving/reconstruction plans as well as other anticipated capital improvement projects that will/may be effected by the replacement program. This information has allowed Eversource and each respective municipality to coordinate work and to prioritize their replacement/road improvement schedules in an effort to minimize local roadway disturbances. The ultimate goal of this process has been the development of a replacement schedule that minimizes the inconvenience to residents and roadway impacts by coordinating roadway reconstruction and maximizes efficiency in the construction process.

To date, this project has serviced over 30 Towns throughout Connecticut.
