HRSD, your regional wastewater treatment utility, in coordination with the City of Poquoson and Hampton, is planning a project in your neighborhood to replace the existing HRSD and City sanitary sewer pipelines and public sewer service connections that are nearing the end of their useful life. This replacement project will also improve the system’s performance and ensure continued, reliable sewer service in the future. The answers to some Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs) are provided here.

Project Overview

HRSD is undertaking a project to replace the sewer pipe and its supporting structure at its existing location along Wythe Creek Road from Hampton into Poquoson. This effort will consolidate the current 2 pipe system down to one newly constructed pipe.  The newly constructed pipe will increase the sewer system’s reliability and will help to ensure HRSD’s ability to protect public health and the environment for decades to come. The contractor will maintain a clean job site and minimize traffic disruption.

Project Schedule
Inspection: August 2023
