Construction began in September 2019 and is scheduled for completion by March <br />2020. <br />Meanwhile, construction improvements to two sanitary sewer lift stations, Pump Stations 18 & 20, are <br />scheduled to be completed by February 2020. Annual flow monitoring of the sanitary sewer collection <br />system began in late December 2019, with flow monitoring at the ten locations completed by February <br />2020.
