S 3-inch Water Line West side of Buckhorn Road from south side of Southern Railroad to I-85 2-inch and 12-inch water lines From U.S. Highway 70 down Redman Road to south side of Southern Railroad Extending the 12-inch water main along U.S. 70 to the approximate center of the northern quadrant of the District would cost approximately $62,500. This cost includes 2,000 linear feet of 12-inch ductile iron water line at $25 per linear foot plus contingencies and engineering costs (25%). Another potential provider is the City of Mebane (Graham-Mebane Water System) through an existing 12-inch water main which terminates at the Pak-Lite plant on Washington Street south of the Southern Railroad 0.3 mile from Buckhorn Road. Sewage Disposal Orange County's Efland sewer system has an 8-inch gravity line on the north side of U.S. Highway 70 which terminates 400 feet west of Richmond Road. Any service west or south of that point would have to be pumped, and flows of up to 100,000 gallons per day (GPD) could be accommodated in that line. Plants with flows of greater than 100,000 GPD would have to pump farther to the east to a section of 12-inch gravity sewer line. - The four intermittent streams in the northern quadrant flow south underneath I-85 and converge in the southern quadrant of the EDD Sewer construction which will occur as the EDD develops should rely to the extent possible on gravity flow in order to minimize the number of pip stations and associated costs by the use of gravity lines along the intermittent streams in the north Quadrant. and underneath 1-85 to West Ten Road. A single upp_station near the stream crossing at West Ten couId then convey wastewater from the entire EDD to a gravity section o the Efland sewer system. Otherwise,several pup stations could be necessary in the northern Quad=of the EDD because the 1==phy there generally runs pc4=dicular to the grayity sewer on Higj=70 Cost estimates for constructing a gra3djv system along the streams and a pump station at West Ten may be developed to determine potential funding scenarios. .
