卡森市公共工程 hosted a meeting on 11月. 14 at 5:30 pm in the Gym at the 卡森城 Community Center, 851 E. 威廉街. 介绍了项目的历史，以及在施工过程中可以期待什么.  See recording of video below. 

What this project will provide property owners:

• New sewer lateral from the main to the property line, including cleanout.

What will be requi红色的 of property owners/occupants:

• 与设计工程师合作，确定化粪池的位置，并选择新下水道侧(服务管线)的最佳路线。.
• 我们鼓励业主在工程完成后尽快接驳市政的卫生污水系统. 然而, ultimate timeframes to connect to municipal sewer, 包括在接获工程完成通知后，强制要求业主在一段时间内废弃个别污水排放系统, will be determined by the 监事会. 连接有助工务署继续为用户提供安全的饮用水.

What costs will property owners be responsible for?

• 从他们的住所到城市提供的财产线连接点的下水道横向建设.
• Abandonment of septic tank.
• If connected to the new sewer lateral within the specified fee waiver period, ultimately determined by the 监事会, 建筑许可证费用, 污水接驳费, and septic abandonment fee will be waived.
• Once connected to the new system, 你每月从市政府收到的水电费中会包括卫生下水道的费用.

卡森市开发了一个项目，可以减少化粪池中的硝酸盐进入你家附近的地下水. 目前, 大约有140个家庭造成地下水含水层的硝酸盐污染，因为你家附近有大量的化粪池，而且已经使用了很长时间. Once an aquifer is contaminated it is very expensive to treat and takes decades to remove the nitrate contamination; it can also be unsafe to drink.

卡森城井 ^#38岁, ^#其中43个位于卡森市东南部，紧邻项目所在地. 好吧 ^#38号未运行, as the City is currently evaluating options to remove nitrates at the well site. 好吧 ^#43 is in operation but nitrate levels continue to rise, and the well is in jeopardy of being taken out of service. 在井场的监测和测试确定污染来自大量的化粪池系统, 随着时间的推移而恶化, and has the potential to further contaminate the groundwater.

Much of the community’s drinking water supply comes from wells. If the nitrate contamination of groundwater is not addressed, 公共饮用水供应可能对人类消费不安全，并且需要昂贵的水处理工艺, resulting in significant limitations on pumping capacities and water production. It is imperative to protect the aquifer from additional contamination. This project is part of multi-phase program completed over the last 30 years to 红色的uce nitrate contamination of our groundwater; 9 phases have been completed to date.

以下图片是你所在地区需要的典型建筑的例子. 

市政府将在主干道和各物业之间修建一条排水管道，方便住户收集污水，并将其输送到区域处理设施进行处理. 这个项目的目标是保护你所在地区的地下水不被进一步污染. Once the sewer collection system construction is completed and operational, you will be notified that the sewer is available for connection.
