| 79 | 2022 | House | Andy Barr | Barr | Andy | B001282 | Republican | KY | Interior and Environment | Sanitary Sewer Overflow Elimination and Sewer Extension Project | SANITARY SEWER OVERFLOW ELIMINATION AND SEWER EXTENSION PROJECT | This project will eliminate sewage from leaking or overflowing onto the ground and into streams. Overflows are unhealthy for the Lawrenceburg community, bad for tourism and threatens the drinking water supply. The purpose of this request is to make vital repairs to Lawrenceburg’s sewer system to eliminate overflows and to extend sewer service to neighborhoods with small lots that have failing septic systems. The sanitary sewer overflows and failing septic systems are contaminating groundwater and surface water causing serious water quality problems and threaten drinking water supplies. This is destructive to public and private property, bad for recreation and tourism and hard on sanitary sewer equipment.This project will include approximately 30,000 feet of low pressure force main to serve approximately 220 homes with aging septic systems. Many of these septic systems have failed and they are in desperate need for sewer service. As these septic systems fail, residents will be required to connect to the sewer line. Also included in this project is approximately 3,000 feet of 24” gravity sewer truck line that will alleviate inundated sewers which will eliminate several sewer overflows. This project will have a significant impact on the environment with cleaner water and less exposure to the harmful organisms in the sewer overflows. | 100 North Main Street, Lawrenceburg, KY 40342 | 750000 |
