Cascade Shores Community Leach Field Project

Cascade Shores Community Leach Field Project

Construct a community septic system and related infrastructure. The purpose of the project is to decommission the existing Cascade Shores Wastewater Treatment Facility (CS-WWTF) and to transport wastewater flows from the Cascade Shores service area to a new community septic system located at APN: 38-570-04. Construction will consist of a sewer lift station, conveyance forcemain, leachate tanks, and related leach field pipes, motor control center and emergency generator. This project has been identified to reduce the cost of operation for the cascade shores residents while improving water quality. Over the past several years, the existing treatment plant has been unable to meet new permit limits for the copper effluent. Abandonment of the plant will lead to an elimination of discharging into Gas Canyon Creek while meeting discharge requirements for land application.
