The sanitary sewer replacement project at the airport is underway and about half finished as of May 17th. This project includes the replacement of all gravity flow sewer lines with a pressurized sanitary system. This will eliminate infiltration of ground water from the Port’s system into the city sewer system. The Coast Guard portion of the airport system will be replaced at a later date. This project should cause little disruption and should be complete by mid-June.

Background

The Warrenton-Astoria Regional E世博官网首页 receives and uses, 平均, 1 million gallons of water from Warrenton city per year. Currently the city of Warrenton is receiving about 5 million gallons of water per year back from AST, contributing to the already-strained capacity of the city's wastewater treatment facility. The additional water comes from stormwater and groundwater intrusion into the WWII-era AST wastewater system. The Port needs to eliminate the wastewater-system intrusion in order to help the city of Warrenton preserve and maintain their existing wastewater treatment infrastructure for as long as possible, as well as avoid surcharges that Warrenton intends to impose on the Port should the problem not be addressed.

进一步, 直到这个问题解决, the City of Warrenton will oppose Port efforts to develop its airport industrial park, which will obstruct the potential for new lease-based revenue streams. To address these challenges, the Port contracted with A.M. Engineering in July 2020 to collect data, assess the system and provide alternatives for reconstruction or reconditioning of the system. A.M. 工程的学习完成了. The recommendation adopted by the Port is replacement of the current system with a private pressurized sanitary system.
