feeder pipes to six drop shafts, which then
will convey the sewage and stormwater to the
tunnel. The shafts, which will be dug from
the surface, will prevent odor escapes with
odor-control systems.
The tunnel will hold the overflows until
a pump at the tunnel's terminus can move
the wastewater up to the plant for treatment,
after which the water is discharged into the
river in a cleaner state meeting environmen-
tal regulations, Salemi said, adding that "in a
sense, a sewage treatment plant is manufac-
turing clean water."
The additional capacity and more con-
trolled tunnel inflow will prevent the plant
from being overwhelmed and the diversion
of untreated overflows into the river during
wet weather.
The project is being paid for largely
with revenue bonds, plus low-interest state
loans and grants. A "Special Sewer Service
Charge," now at $2.90 per 748 gallons of
water used for MDC customers, is generating
revenue to help repay the bonds and loans.
The special charge took effect in 2008. The
charge is in addition to the current water
charge of $2.53 per 748 gallons.
AECOM designed the South Hartford Con-
veyance and Storage Tunnel and New Jersey-
based Black & Veatch worked as a subcon-
tractor. The tunnel's design cost was about
$30 million and is separate from construction
costs, Salemi said.
At some point, another tunnel project,
a north tunnel, could connect to the south
tunnel, but that's still being evaluated as a
future component of the Clean Water Proj-
ect, which is slated for a 2026 completion,
Salemi said.
