1. On November 08, 2023, Marine Corps Installations East -Marine
Corps Base Camp Lejeune (MCIEAST-MCB CAMLEJ) removed the priming
bulb from the TT99 diesel bypass pump and subsequently confirmed
that other pump/lift station pumps on the Base do not have
priming bulbs.
2. On November 15, 2023, MCB CAMLEJ replaced the transformer
supporting pump/lift station TT99 (TT99).
3. The MCB CAMLEJ staff are planning substantial improvements
to the force main supported by TT99 and the nearby area. A
proposed military construction project providing a redundant
force main will likely be forwarded to Marine Corps
Installations Command to compete for congressional approval and
funding consideration. The command is also planning local
projects to improve the berm separating TT99 and the Northeast
Creek and cap a legacy stormwater pipe downgradient of TT99 that
leads to the creek.
4. MCB CAMLEJ implements an "in-house" wastewater collection
system "Capital Improvement Plan" (CIP) to designate funding for
reinvestment into the wastewater collection system. A proposed
services contract for updating the CIP is awaiting funding.
5. MCB CAMLEJ employees monitor and perform routine maintenance
and emergency repairs on the wastewater collection system. The
MCB CAMLEJ wastewater collection system is supported with an
updated Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition (SCADA) system.
The SCADA system continuously monitors wastewater collection
system performance, enabling remote detection and correction of
any operating deficiencies, and informed prioritization of
maintenance and repair resources.
6. MCB CAMLEJ performs annual wastewater collection system
maintenance, prioritizing military family housing and other
areas where fats, oils, and grease (FOG) tend to accumulate.
The command also has established collection points and
frequencies for pumping and cleaning grease traps. The
command's Environmental Standard Operating Procedures also
include an FOG education program for military family housing
residents.
