Municipalities where proposed project would be located: Middletown and Cromwell Project Description: As a result of a feasibility study conducted in 1999 by the City of Middletown, which focused on various means to collect, convey and treat wastewater for Middletown, the City will evaluate alternatives to convey wastewater to the Mattabassett District Wastewater Treatment Plant in Cromwell and abandon its existing treatment system on River Road. In order to abandon the treatment facility in Middletown, a conveyance system will need to be constructed from River Road in Middletown to the Mattabassett plant. The proposed conveyance system would consist of a pumping station on River Road, gravity sewers to the new pumping station, ductile iron force main along the CT Route 9/Providence and Worcester Railroad corridor between the Middletown and Mattabassett treatment facilities, and connection of the new force main to the Mattabassett plant.
