Sewer Projects

The Town is committed to ensuring adequate wastewater treatment capacity as cost effectively as possible. Sewer projects enable the Town to discharge treated wastewater while protecting streams from contamination. Design and construction meet strict environmental requirements.

Projects (Winter 2006)

Bachelor Branch Interceptor & Pump Station Relocation

Overview

Phase 1 of this project provides approximately 5,100 linear feet of 36-inch diameter gravity sewer line along Bachelor Branch from the intersection of Green Level West Road to the new West Cary Pump Station, located at 3905 Green Level West Road. Once completed, the Phase 1 of the Bachelor Branch Interceptor will provide gravity sewer service to the surrounding area, and will also convey sewage from the White Oak Interceptor to the West Cary Pump Station.

Phase 2 of this project provides for 7,300 linear feet of 36-inch diameter gravity sewer line along Bachelor Branch from the existing Fieldstone pump station to the intersection of Green Level West Road, where it will intersect with Phase 1 of this project. Once completed, the Bachelor Branch Interceptor will provide gravity sewer service to the surrounding area. Also, the existing Fieldstone Pump Station, which would require expansion and improvement to remain in service, will be removed from service, eliminating any potential failure of the pump station while reducing associated maintenance costs for sewer service in this area.

Schedule

Phase 1 is presently under construction with completion anticipated by the fall of 2007. Phase 2 of this project is presently in the design phase. Construction is anticipated in 2007.

Campbell Road Interceptor

Overview

This project provides approximately 3,800 linear feet of 8-inch sanitary sewer interceptor that will serve the drainage basin bounded by Holly Springs Road, Jones Franklin Road, Campbell Road and the planned Terrington Subdivision. The interceptor will provide sewer for existing and future needs and will parallel a portion of an unnamed tributary to Swift Creek. The interceptor will allow for the elimination of the Swift Creek Shopping Center pump station.

A related project is the Terrington pump station to which this interceptor sewer will discharge.

Status

Under design. Construction is planned in 2007.

Hillsdale Forest Sewer Extension & Greenwood Acres Utility Improvements

Overview

The Hillsdale Forest Sewer Extension Project and the Greenwood Acres Utility Improvements Project are a continuation of the original Hillsdale Forest Water and Sewer Extension Project, Phases 1 & 2. The petitions for water and sewer improvements for the Hillsdale Forest Sewer Extension and Greenwood Acres Utility Improvements were submitted in conjunction with the original Hillsdale Forest petition during February 2003.

This project will provide sewer connectivity for the residents of Imperial Road and Savannah Circle in Hillsdale Forest and Greenwood Circle and Vicki Drive in Greenwood Acres. Since most residents in these areas already have accessibility to municipal water service from existing water mains, no new water mains will be installed. The only water related items included in this project are residential water taps along Greenwood Circle and Vickie Drive and one additional fire hydrant along Greenwood Circle.

Status

Construction completed on both phases in September 2006 at a total construction cost of $980,000.

Hillsdale Forest Water & Sewer Extension Project (Phases 1 & 2)

Overview

The Hillsdale Forest project, Phases 1 and 2, includes providing water and sewer service to the residents of Hillsdale Forest along Kingston Ridge Road, Fairlane Road, Walnut Street, portions of Imperial Road, Pioneer Court, and Savannah Circle. This project was created by a community petition effort and the petition was submitted in February 2003. This project, when completed, will provide approximately 6,500 feet of sewer main lines and 7,600 feet of water mains. Sewer connectivity across US1/64 is being constructed under a separate project.

Status

Construction completed on both phases in March 2006 at a total construction cost of $996,500.

Terrington Pump Station and Force Main

Overview

This project is required to move existing, planned and future wastewater from the drainage basin bounded primarily by Holly Springs Road, Jones Franklin Road, Campbell Road and Terrington Subdivision. The project includes construction of the 0.3 million gallon-per-day capacity Terrington pump station and approximately 1,750 and 960 linear feet of 6-inch diameter force main and 8-inch diameter gravity sewer, respectively.  

Status

The pump station and force main are in the construction phase. Completion of construction is planned for November 2007.

West Cary Pump Station & Force Main

Overview

This project is required to move wastewater from the western service area to existing or future water reclamation facilities. The project includes construction of a 13.7 million gallon per day West Cary Pump Station and approximately 17,800 feet of 24 and 36-inch diameter force main.

Related projects include gravity lines flowing to this pump station along Bachelor's Branch, White Oak Creek and Green Level tributary, along with elimination of the Fieldstone and White Oak pump stations.

Schedule

Phase 1 of the Pump Station is presently under construction with completion anticipated by the summer of 2007. Other phases/expansions of the pump station will be implemented as needed.

Installation of the Force Main is presently underway, with completion anticipated by the fall of 2007.

White Oak Creek Interceptor & Pump Station Elimination

Overview

This project provides approximately 7,800 linear feet of 24-inch sanitary sewer interceptor along White Oak Creek from west of NC 55 to Green Level Road, where it ties into Phase 1 of the Bachelor Branch Interceptor. Once completed, the White Oak Interceptor will provide gravity sewer service to the surrounding area. The existing White Oak Pump Station, which would require expansion and improvement to remain in service, will be removed from service, eliminating any potential failure of the pump station while reducing associated maintenance costs for sewer service in this area.

Schedule

This project is currently under construction with completion anticipated by fall 2007.
