Briar Cliff Manor Pump Station and Water Main Extension

3. Notice of Scoping for Briar Cliff Booster Station and Long Meadow Water Main Extension

Municipality where proposed project might be located: Bethel

Address of Possible Project Location: Nashville Road, Briar Cliff Manor and Long Meadow Lane

Project Description: The Bethel Water Department is currently under a consent order with the Connecticut Department of Public Health (DPH) to provide adequate pressure to the Briar Cliff Manor neighborhood. The Town of Bethel has applied for funding through the Drinking Water State Revolving Fund to install a booster pump station at the intersection of Nashville Road and Briar Cliff Manor to address low system pressures at the customer services on Briar Cliff Manor, Crestview Drive, and Long Meadow Lane. The underground booster pump station is designed to increase pressures above the 25 psi minimum pressure, as required by the Regulations of Connecticut State Agencies. In addition, construction of the proposed project would ensure adequate firefighting flows for the neighborhood.  The project also includes the installation of approximately 600 feet of new 8" distribution water main from Briar Cliff Manor to Long Meadow Lane. The installation of the water main in Long Meadow Lane will allow the properties currently connected directly to the transmission main to reconnect to the properly pressurized water main via new service lines.
