HRSD – USGS Newport News Land Motion Observatory
--Construction Work to Resume--
HRSD, your regional wastewater treatment utility, will resume work at the Land Motion Observatory at the James River Treatment Plant. This work should take place primarily between the hours of 7 a.m. – 6 p.m. Monday-Friday and 8 a.m. – 5 p.m. Saturday and Sunday.
Construction Update:
- Beginning as early as November 17, work at the Land Motion Observatory will resume on the James River Treatment Plant site.
- The construction work will include drilling for the extensometer.
- This work should not affect your water or sewer services.
- This portion of the work is anticipated to be completed within 5 - 6 months. In observance of the winter holidays, USGS is not scheduled to work November 25-30 and December 20-January 4. Due to the nature of construction, work is weather and situation dependent and dates are subject to change or be extended.
While our project team works diligently to minimize impacts, you may notice increased noise, traffic, crews, and heavy equipment (with back-up safety alarms) associated with construction. Please take care when traveling around the construction area and for your safety, do not enter the site.

Our communities will have clean waterways and reliable water resources for generations to come.
