Segment 1 (Emidio Pump Station to Copco Road): Report for 5 January 1999: Backfill crews resumed their work near the Flying J along Peace Valley Road today. Hydro testing of the section between Flying J and the Warbler Skip was reported as successful. Work at the Warbler Skip consisted of continuing dewatering, coating, and compaction of the ROW in Lebec Road. Installation of the Tejon Ranch water pipe and PPSI fiber optic conduit moved forward today. Coating crews finished painting epoxy on welds at the California Aqueduct valves, then moved to work on wrapping the final mainline welds on Tejon Bench. Some clean up was also done along Tejon Bench. Welders worked on building the risers for the I-5/Tejon bore. Paving was done on Grapevine Road, with a compaction crew working ahead of them to prepare the ROW. Work at both Emidio and Grapevine Stations occurred today. The crew at the Grapevine Creek bore spent the day working on the ditch line, as well as removing shoring boxes on the north side. Soil was screened at the north end of the road. Welding on the 8" dewatering pipe between Emidio Pump Station and Stream Crossing #1 continued along Highway 166. Additional welding and x-ray occurred on the "leftover" pieces of pipe. Some fiber optic cable was pulled on Tejon Bench.

Segment 2B (Castaic to Sylmar) Report for 01-05-99. A crew worked to clean-up and seal the splice boxes on the Newhall Ranch property between Valencia Blvd and McBean Parkway. At Romero Canyon Road, electrical work took place in the Church St vault and valve work done at the same location.
