This was directly related to Severe Natural Conditions, more specifically, an early morning downpour that created inflow above our short term pumping capabilities. The Town of Swepsonville is very much aware of the pumping limitations at the Virginia Mills Pump Station, as well as the existence of numerous possibilities for Infiltration and Inflow into the system. Our Town Engineering Firm has prepared, and we have implemented a $3.5M upgrade to the sewer system which includes I&I point repairs, manhole and sewer line repairs as well as complete replacement of the Virginia Mills Pump Station with a triplex pump system. Design for this project is completed, the point repairs portion has been completed, and a contract has been awarded to Carolina Civil Works for construction of the pump station. I have attached copies of paid invoices for the point repairs, pump maintenance and repairs for this period and the cost of rebuilding one of the pumps at this station. As is evident, The Town of Swepsonville takes the matter of sewer collections very seriously, and we respectfully request that your office takes no enforcement action with reference this Sanitary Sewer Overflow.
