In the geographic area that feeds into Mill Creek Pump Station there are still large areas that have private septic systems. When and how will these properties become part of the public sewer system and will this additional flow be sent to Mill Creek Pump Station?
The County’s Water and Sewer Master Plan delineates service area categories that define availability and extent of public sewer service. The goal of the master plan is to ensure planned and orderly extension of public infrastructure to accommodate planned growth and development. Many of the areas within the Broadneck Service Area are existing homes on private septic systems with limited potential for further development. These areas are categorized as “future service” meaning they are not currently planned to be served with public sewer, but may be in the future. Typically, these areas receive public sewer by petitioning the County to extend service to replace failing or compromised on-site septic systems. At this time, it is not possible to determine whether these flows would be conveyed through the Mill Creek Pumping Station to the Broadneck Water Reclamation Facility. Whatever option is pursued would require comprehensive assessment to ensure system capacity is available.
