Community Update – Sewers Are on the Way to Mastic & Shirley

This is an exciting time for the economic development and environmental protection of our community. Since the approval of the referendum for the Forge River Watershed Sewer District in January 2019, much work has been done to advance this project. The design team has been out in the community surveying properties and assessing the area to finalize the design of the new advanced wastewater treatment facility and residential connections. The next step is a final homeowner review workshop where the design team and engineers will sit with individual property owners to review the scope of the work as it relates to their individual properties. This project is moving forward as expected. All funding is being secured and the final design is near completion. Procurement is slated to begin late summer 2020 with groundbreaking of the advanced wastewater treatment facility to take place in January of 2021.
