    The city of Wyandotte, Michigan used SIPP (structural impregnation pipe lining process) to rehabilitate approximately 3,500 feet of aging water mains dating from the 1930s and 1950s in 2018. The SIPP method allowed the city to rehabilitate the pipes in about a month at a lower cost than traditional open cutting methods, while also minimizing disruptions to customers and reducing the amount of required construction work.
