The fiscal year 2013 operating budget for the Water Division includes funding to
replace the City's existing vacuum excavator. This piece of equipment is the
primary excavating equipment used by the water division to expose and repair leaks
in the water system. Because of the risk associated with mechanical digging
equipment, vacuum excavation using high pressure water is used when working
near gas, electric and fiber utilities in the right of way.
