The City of Saint Charles has completed Sequence #1 of the Ohio Avenue and Kautz Road Raw Water Main Installation Project, advancing critical water infrastructure improvements. The work included installing a new raw water main between Well No. 8 and the future Well No. 14, along with other key infrastructure components and roadway restoration.

Most of the water main was installed using horizontal directional drilling to minimize surface impacts and limit disruption, and hydrants were installed by open-cutting. Trotter and Associates supported the City by securing EPA funding, designing the water main alignment, assisting with the bidding process, and observing construction in cooperation with City staff.
