Boat Harbor Land Transmission Pipe Installation

HRSD Capital Improvement Program Project (BH015720)


 

As part of the Sustainable Water Initiative for Tomorrow (SWIFT) program, HRSD will pump wastewater from Newport News to its Nansemond Treatment Plant in Suffolk. At the Nansemond location, wastewater will be highly treated prior to discharge to the James River. A significant portion of the treated water will undergo additional advanced treatment to produce SWIFT WaterTM which will meet drinking water quality standards. This will further reduce nutrients discharged to the James River Basin and support local water quality and Chesapeake Bay restoration efforts. To connect HRSD’s Boat Harbor Underwater Transmission Pipeline to Nansemond facilities, construction of a 7,000-foot pipeline on land is also required. Pipes to be installed in this area include a 48-inch diameter pipe for wastewater and pipes that will convey treated water to recharge wells that will be installed in the area.

Project Cost: Approximately $38 million
