The pumps,generator and electrical controls were installed and put <br /> into operation in 1988,so they are now roughly 23 years old. According to Orange Water and Sewer Authority(OWASA),who perform our routine maintenance,all of <br /> these components of the system have been in service longer than OWASA's standard duty schedule of 10 years for pumps and controls and 20 years for generators. <br /> The construction-phase engineering consultant for the ongoing Central Efland-2/North Buckhorn sewer expansion has determined that the existing MCPS can be taken <br /> out of service by installing a new gravity outfall between the MCPS and the proposed, but upsized, Brookhollow sewer lift station located on Brookhollow Road. Work is <br /> currently being done to design this project in time to make it a part of the ongoing Central Efland-2/North Buckhorn sewer expansion.The County has recently been <br /> notified by NCDENR of approval of Clean Water State Revolving Loan funds in the amount of$755,450 for this project. This project will also facilitate the eventual <br /> transfer to the City of Mebane by removing an antiquated lift station leaving a new sole source pump station origin that handles all Efland sewer flow. <br /> W <br />
