Background• Under Minute 206, Nogales International Sanitation 

Project was originally constructed to serve Nogales, 

Sonora, and Nogales, Arizona

• The project as authorized consisted of (1) a sewer 

pipeline with 7,200 feet in Mexico; (2) 8,146 feet of 

sewer pipeline in U.S.; and (3) a treatment plant.

• Nogales International Wastewater Treatment Plant 

(NIWTP) was situated approximately 1.5 miles north 

of the border and had a 1.6 mgd treatment capacity.

Background (contd.)

• In 1967, under Minute 227, a larger plant with 8.2 

mgd capacity was constructed.  At the request of the 

City of Nogales, the larger plant was constructed in 

Rio Rico, AZ, approximately 9 miles north of the 

border. Construction completed in 1972.

• Sewerline portion from border to location of original 

NIWTP is called ‘trunkline.’ The remaining sewerline

portion necessitated because of the relocation to Rio 

Rico is called the ‘IOI.’

Background (contd.)

• In 1992, under Minute 276, a subsequent 

expansion of the NIWTP to a capacity of 15.75 mgd.

• In 2009, with further technological treatment 

improvements, plant capacity was reduced to 14.74 

mgd.

Background (contd.)

• Currently, domestic and industrial wastewater 

generated in Nogales, Sonora, is conveyed north by a 

gravity collection system through the sewerline and 

across the international border to Nogales, Arizona. 

Wastewater from the City of Nogales, Arizona is 

collected into the trunkline and IOI. The combined 

wastewater flows from both countries are conveyed 

northward to the NIWTP, where treatment takes 

place prior to discharge into the Santa Cruz River.

Background (contd.)

• The sewerline has over one‐hundred manholes 

within its alignment. 

• The sewerline ranges in size between 24 inches and 

42 inches in diameter and is comprised of unlined 

reinforced and unlined unreinforced concrete 

sections.

Purpose of Sewerline Rehabilitation Project

•To rehabilitate an almost 50‐year old sewer line that 

has reached its useful life.

•To avert a spill or leakage of sewage in order to 

ensure the continued health and safety of the 

communities of Ambos Nogales as well as 

downstream communities along the Nogales Wash 

and Santa Cruz River in Arizona.

•To rehab and repair any existing structural damage.

Project Description

Project Description

•This rehab will utilize the Cured‐in‐Place Pipe (CIPP) 

process. CIPP generally is considered to be a 

trenchless technology with little or no disruption to 

the existing ground conditions.

• A resin filled polyester felt tube, or liner, is inserted 

or inverted into an existing pipe, inflated with water 

or steam and cured‐in‐place. 

• Resulting pipe inside of a pipe is a structural 

replacement of the host pipe.

Project Description (contd.)• Rehab will address operational defects such as 

current accumulation of debris, groundwater inflow 

and infiltration, current root intrusion in manholes 

and pipeline throughout the sewerline. However, 

vegetation along pipeline route must be managed to 

avoid future root intrusion.

• Rehab will address current structural defects 

including corrosion, cracks, wall penetrations, and 

invert erosion.

Design Work 

• In January 2015, the USIBWC entered a cost‐share 

agreement with the City of Nogales, Arizona for the 

design of rehabilitation improvements to the pipeline.

•In May 2014, the USIBWC awarded an engineering 

design contract to AECOM/URS Corporation for the 

sewerline rehabilitation design.

•The project is divided into five (5) phases. So, five 

separate sets of plans and specifications will be 

developed.
