Fort Lee, Virginia. In November of 2009, Tri-State Utilities completed a comprehensive sewer rehabilitation project at Fort Lee. The base is located in Petersburg, Virginia and is undergoing a sizable expansion. At the same time, the utility assets of Fort Lee have been privatized under the Armies Military Utility Privatization Plan. Through this plan, the sewer system needed to be evaluated and brought up to regulation. This project encompassed, cured in place lining of approximately 60,000 feet of 6” through 30” sewer lines. Tri-State completed the task in seven months.
