Lucas Creek Pump Station Replacement
HRSD Capital Improvement Program Project (JR013500)

HRSD, your regional wastewater utility, is undertaking a project to replace its existing Lucas Creek Pump Station with a new pump station on an adjacent site. This effort will maintain the existing sanitary sewer service in the Denbigh Shores neighborhood while providing a modern, updated facility with improvements to noise, odor, and aesthetics. The new pump station will be styled to resemble a residential home, and it will contain all required equipment under a single structure. The multiple brick buildings that comprise the existing station will be demolished at the end of the project once the new pump station is in service.

Project Cost: $21.3 million

The contractor is continuing construction of the new pump station structure. The building structure will continue for the next several months. Some single lane and road closures may occur at the intersection of Lucas Creek Road and Old Lucas Creek Road during this work, to accommodate the upcoming sanitary sewer pipe installation. Flaggers will be in place to direct traffic around the work.

The work will require excavating areas of Lucas Creek Road and Old Lucas Creek Road with work concentrated around the intersection of the two streets. To minimize disruption to the surrounding community, a comprehensive traffic control plan will be implemented.

Staging:: Anticipated September 2022

Construction:: Fall 2022 - Summer 2026

Restoration:: Immediately following construction when seasonable appropriate.

: This project is a necessary part of a larger, federally-mandated program to reduce sanitary sewer overflows during rainstorms. This project will replace a 50-year-old facility to help ensure HRSD’s ability to protect public health and the environment for decades to come.
: Disruptions to traffic will be minimized, and in most cases, a single lane of traffic will be maintained. Flagging will be used to help direct traffic during construction and allow access to the Lucas Creek Road Bridge to the extent possible.
: The contractor will ensure that access to all residences will be maintained throughout construction. Trash and mail services will not be affected. If necessary, the contractor will move trash containers from within a work zone to an area accessible for pickup and will be responsible for returning them to each residence.
: Work will typically take place Monday through Friday during daylight hours (7 a.m. - 4 p.m.). However, there may be times when extended hours, work at night, or weekend work may be necessary.
: Some residences directly adjacent to the property may experience a temporary interruption of sewer service while work is performed on their sewer lateral pipes. The contractor will notify affected residences before work is performed on any laterals. Sewer service will typically be restored within several hours. Your water service should not be affected by this project.
: Where sewer and lateral pipes are dug up, asphalt, curb, gutters, driveway aprons, and grass will be removed and then restored upon completion of the project.
: The typical construction noises such as equipment engines, back-up alarms, materials being delivered, diesel generators, air compressors, sawing, etc. should be anticipated. The contractor will be required to keep the roadways free of dirt and other debris and to apply water to the site as needed to minimize dust.
: The contractor will keep some supplies on the project site within the active work zone.
: Construction workers will park within the active work zone.
: HRSD strives to eliminate odors from its facilities. The new pump station will be equipped with an odor control system designed to capture and treat odors from the pump station.
: The old pump station will be demolished after the new pump station is placed in service.
: The estimated cost for the project is $21.3 million and is financed by the wastewater treatment fees paid by HRSD customers.
: Regular project updates are posted on the HRSD website at www.hrsd.com/construction-status. You may also sign up at www.hrsd.com/subscriptions to receive an email notification whenever the website has an update about the project.
