Municipality where project is proposed: Danbury

Project Description: The City of Danbury has evaluated the long-term wastewater disposal needs for the west side of the City.  The study proposes a project in two phases.  The first phase will consist of a gravity sewer from an existing sanitary sewer at the intersection of Mill Plain Road and Prindle Lane to a proposed pumping station to be constructed on the north side of Interstate 84 (I-84) on property of Interstate Business Center, LLC, and a force main from the pumping station to the existing sewer approximately 250 feet west of Kenosia Avenue.  The second phase will consist of a gravity sewer, starting at the end of the force main constructed under Phase 1, which will be installed parallel to the existing Mill Plain Road Interceptor and be connected to the existing Still River Interceptor east of Seegar Street.  The project area is bounded to the north by Mill Plain Road (Route 6), to the west by the New York State line, to the south by the Town of Ridgefield and Miry Brook Road, and to the east by Route 7.
