US Pipelining Completes Epoxy Lining Restoration of Historic William J. Nealon Federal Building

One of Nation’s Most Distinguished Federal Landmarks Receives Benefits from Epoxy Lining Rehabilitation

Philadelphia, PA November 2020 – US Pipelining, LLC., a leader in Cured-In-Place-Pipelining (CIPP), and trenchless lining solutions, announced today the completion of a federal project which included epoxy pipe lining rehabilitation at the William J. Nealon Federal Building and United States Courthouse for the Middle District of Pennsylvania, located in Scranton, Pennsylvania. The city’s first federally owned building, the William J. Nealon Federal Building was originally erected in 1894 as a federal post office and was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2018.

The epoxy pipelining rehabilitation, involving the Federal Building condenser chiller supply and return lines, was part of a larger infrastructure project directed by the United States of America, acting by and through, the General Services Administration (GSA).

“This was part of a larger federally funded historical restoration,” states Jeremy Bowman, President, US Pipelining. “Our services included the epoxy lining and restoration of pressurized condenser lines requiring project specific specifications, materials, and security clearances. “We have successfully completed many such projects including federal landmarks, museums, and libraries. Our team is experienced in the special planning and logistics required for projects of this magnitude,” said Bowman.

“Epoxy coating and pipe lining has become a widely used and accepted technology globally as a low-cost alternative to traditional dig and replace methods,” said Bowman. “Industry can either close down operations, interrupt traffic flow to dig and replace failing infrastructure or, option a non-invasive rehabilitation process which rehabilitates the failed pipe from the inside out without the need for opening walls, or excavation. Companies and municipalities worldwide are now opting for a faster, more cost-effective means of rehabilitation. US Pipelining offers a wide array of trenchless, noninvasive pipelining solutions.”
