The no-action alternative. <br />2. Reconstruct the ditch using HDPE (High Density Polyethylene) pipe ($2.0 million). <br />3. Reconstruct the ditch using RCP (Reinforced Concrete Pipe) ($2.8 million). <br /> <br />Alternative No.1 was considered unacceptable since it means the LPCDC would continue to spend <br />resources to 'band-aid' the existing system that currently experiences section outages due to maintenance <br />challenges, and the continuous loss of water. <br /> <br />Alternative No.2 was selected, since it is considered to be the least costly reliable approach. <br /> <br />Alternative No.3 was ruled out due to cost. <br /> <br />May 2006 <br /> <br />Project Description and Alternatives <br /> <br />9 <br /> <br />Lincoln Park Crooked Ditch Company <br />
