BACKGROUND: For the past several years, Orange County has been designing and permitting a sewer extension to the Efland sewer system to serve the eastern portion of the Efland community. Concurrently, Orange County has been designing and permitting an extension to the City of Mebane's sewer infrastructure to serve residents in the Northern Buckhorn area. The Efland sewer extension is designed to install approximately 20,000 linear feet of 8" gravity sewer line, a new 250 gallon per minute pump station and 2,640 linear feet of 6" force main to serve the remainder of the area originally conceived of as Phase I and to serve the area conceived of as Phase Two of the Efland sewer system. A map of the area to be served as part of this Efland sewer extension is provided at Attachment 2. The area to be served by this extension is roughly bounded by McGowan Creek to the north, the railroad to the south, Efland-Cedar Grove Road to the west and Lloyd Dairy Road to the east. The estimated construction cost of the Efland sewer extension is approximately $4,100,000. A map of the area to be served by the extension of the City of Mebane's sewer system into the Northern Buckhorn community is also provided at Attachment 2. This extension consists of approximately 5,400 linear feet of 8 gravity sewer line. The area to be served by this extension is roughly described as the section of Industrial Drive between the General Electric plant and Buckhorn Road, the portion of Buckhorn Road between Interstate 85/40 and the railroad, and a portion of Washington Street east of Buckhorn Road. The estimated construction cost of the Northern Buckhorn sewer extension is approximately $600,000. The total estimated construction cost for these two projects is approximately $4,700,000.
