The pumps, generator and electrical controls were installed and put into operation in 1988, so they are now roughly 25 years old. According to Orange Water and Sewer Authority (OWASA), who perform our routine maintenance, all of 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. The construction -phase engineering consultant for the ongoing Central Efland -2 /North Buckhorn sewer expansion has determined that the existing MCPS can be taken out of service by installing a new gravity outfall between the MCPS and the newly constructed Brookhollow sewer lift station located on Brookhollow Road. The work to prepare the Brookhollow lift station to receive this outfall was completed in March 2013. The County has received approval from NCDENR for Clean Water State Revolving Fund (SRF) Loan funds in the amount of $774,904 for this project. The SRF loan is a reimbursable line of credit which will not be available until the bids are received for project construction and approved by the State. Until State funds are available for reimbursement, this project will have to be funded from the General Fund or through debt service. This project will also facilitate the eventual transfer of the Efland Sewer system to the City of Mebane by removing an antiquated lift station, and its associated maintenance and upkeep, from the system. For the current Fiscal Year 2013 -14, the budget includes a portion of funding transferred from Project #30017, the Efland Expansion Project, to cover costs not paid for under the SRF program, e.g. loan closing costs. In addition, Orange County requested an increase in the SRF loan amount (originally $755,450) due to the construction bids coming in higher than expected. 67
