Southern Oaks Interceptor

The Town’s 2019 Southern Oaks Sanitary Sewer Interceptor project began the week of June 19, 2019. The contractor J. F. Wilkerson Contracting Co. is installing a new sanitary sewer interceptor from the existing pump station on West Academy Street to Red Oak Tree Drive. Work will include clearing the route of trees and underbrush, and installation of 5,250 LF of 10-inch diameter sewer, and the restoration of the area after construction. The sanitary sewer route was selected to minimize environmental impacts to streams and wetlands. The project will allow abandonment of the pump station and free up capacity in the sanitary sewer collection system in the downtown area. The projected time of the project is 7 to 10 months. If you have any questions or concerns, please call Patrick Paine, Utility Staff Engineer, at 919-567-3916.
