The Town of Pembroke has several sections of existing gravity sewer lines and a sewer force main that must be relocated and/or replaced due to conflicts with the proposed roadway and storm drainage improvements. The project will involve the relocation and/or replacement of 545 LF of 8" gravity sewer, 408 LF of 6" sewer force main, and associated appurtenances. The relocations of the sewer force main were listed in section VIII-5 of the permit application since there was no other place to list it on the application. There will be no changes to the flow and head conditions for the existing sewer pump station. The relocation of the 545 LF of 8" gravity sewer required a variance approval which was approved on 03/14/2018 and two (2) copies of the approval are attached.
