What to Expect

Construction crews will prepare the area for construction by clearing easements, setting temporary fencing, and establishing staging areas. It may be necessary for contractors to remove plants, trees and/or shrubs. Contractors may honor individual requests to set aside plants or shrubs, however, they are not responsible for relocating or replacing them. It is the responsibility of the resident to relocate and maintain any plantings removed by the contractors and their crews. Grass disturbed during construction will be replaced with sod or seed after final construction is completed.

This project will involve numerous work crews in areas where utilities are to be installed. As installation begins on your street, you will see the removal of asphalt. This will allow crews to install gravity sanitary sewer lines. Retrofitting sanitary sewer lines in established neighborhoods is very challenging and unfortunately disruptive. Because sewer lines are installed deeper than water, gas, cable, phone and electrical lines, there is a possibility of disturbing existing utilities. Every effort will be made to avoid interruptions, however, should this happen, all efforts will be made to restore services as soon as possible.

We realize utility installation may cause some inconveniences for those that live and work in the area, including those who already have PWC sewer services. All residents can help during construction by reducing speed in construction areas. Doing this will increase the safety for workers as well as reduce spread of debris and dust.

If a problem should occur as a result of this work, please contact PWC at 483-1382 during normal business hours. After normal hours, please call our dispatch center at 1-877-OUR PWC1. If your residence is scheduled to have sewer services installed, PWC will send you additional information regarding sanitary sewer installation and service connection.
