3. Mount Pleasant Waterworks FY2019-2020 Capital Projects for Proposed
SRF Funding
Mr. Niesse stated that they have a capital budget for the next two years
in the approximate amount of $129 million of which they need funding.
He said they will be seeking SRF funding in the amount of $25 million,
another will be addressed at the Special Town Council meeting today in
the amount of $4 Million. He said the other four projects total
approximately $19 million dollars. He said the first project is for gravity
collection improvements in the Cooper Estates area, which is
approximately 2.5 miles of gravity line that will either be replaced or
lined. He said the next project is the replacement of Deep Well #2 for
approximately $3 million dollars. He said this is located off 7th Avenue,
and the well is approximately 50 to 55 years old. He said it shut their
plant down in early spring, so it needs to be replaced with a new pump
and a new building to cover it. He said the next item is on Highway 17,
where some of their critical infrastructure at the entrance of Park West
failed last fall. They would like to replace that line with a directional drill
for approximately $3 million dollars from the entrance of Carolina Park,
where the Legacy Apartments are located, to approximately 500 feet
south of Park West Boulevard. He stated that the last item is the
conversation of pump stations, which has been an ongoing project for a
number of years. He said they currently have an SRF project open
converting some pump stations and this would be to continue this
project. He said they will be realigning approximately four pump stations,
bringing piping up out of some pits for approximately 4 or 5 stations and
then total conversation to the new standard specifications for another 4
or 5 pump stations. He said part of the SRF process is a Resolution
through the Waterworks Commission and approval with an Ordinance
with the Town.
a. Gravity Collection System Rehab Program – Not to Exceed $7 Million
b. Replacement of Deep Well 2 – Not to Exceed $3 Million
c. Highway 17 & Park West Boulevard Forcemain Replacement – Not to
Exceed $3 Million
d. Pump Station Conversion/Rehab Program – Not to Exceed $6 Million
Mr. Brimmer asked if Deep Well 2 is the one that had the issues with
sediment blocking it and will this be to correct it.
Mr. Niesse responded in the affirmative. He said there was corrosion
which was scaling off the side of the pipe and gummed up the pump in
their treatment plant.
Mr. Brimmer said on Highway 17, Park West Boulevard had some
significant work done recently and asked if Mr. Niesse would discuss the
failure in that area.
Mr. Niesse said it was a corrosion failure. There are long lines bringing
waste down from Darryl Creek and Carolina Park areas and it gets
turbulent and causes gasses and corrosion. He said they divert some of
this into the pump station at Park West Recreation facility, which is a by-
pass they are able to utilize. He said because of the use that it does get
and the seldom use that it also gets at times, they have a build up of
gasses and corrosion. He said it was at that junction structure where they
had issues.
Mr. Brimmer asked if more failures in that area are expected.
Mr. Niesse said there will always be some of these issues which is simply
the characteristics of waste; however, there is a ductal iron pipe up there
and MPW has put plastic pipe all the way back down US 17, which should
alleviate the problem in the future.
Mr. Brimmer asked how old the infrastructure is that is being replaced.
Mr. Niesse stated that it is approximately 25 years old.
Mr. Brimmer moved to recommend approval of the request from Mount
Pleasant Waterworks for the $25 million-dollar loan request from the SRF
Fund; seconded by Mr. Bustos. All present voted in favor.
