BACKGROUND:
The Capital Improvement Program, as adopted by the Board of County Commissioners (BOCC), includes an allocation for the Wastewater Rehabilitation and Replacement Program geared towards asset management of existing wastewater facilities. A condition assessment was completed for the Waxhaw Septic Tank Effluent Gravity (STEG) system, and a two-phase replacement project was developed to replace the existing 4-inch and 6-inch STEG sewer piping with conventional 8-inch gravity sewer mains and manholes due to their poor condition. The first phase of the project consists of the replacement of approximately 4,000 linear feet of sewer lines in the Waxhaw downtown area on the north side of the railroad that runs along Highway 75.
On March 1, 2021, the BOCC approved WK Dickson Task Order 2021-01 in the amount of $104,850.00 for the engineering field assessment and preliminary design. The BOCC also approved WK Dickson Task Order 2021-09 in the amount of $135,509.00 for final design, permitting, and bidding services on March 20, 2023.
