Locke Street Area Phase 1 Combined Sewer Separation and Water Improvements (CWSRF No. 16878)

Locke Street Area Phase 1 Combined Sewer Separation and Water Improvements (CWSRF No. 16878)

The City of Haverhill is funding the Locke Street Area Phase 1 Combined Sewer Separation and Water Improvements through local funding sources from the City. The project construction is partially financed by the Massachusetts Clean Water Trust Loan administered by Massachusetts Department of Environmental Protection (MassDEP). Learn more about the MassDEP CWSRF Loan Program.

The City of Haverhill has a combined sewer collection system that transports the flow to the City’s Wastewater Treatment Facility (WWTF). During some rain events, combined sewer overflows (CSOs) occur in the project area and discharge untreated flow into the Little River. The project will reduce the quantity and frequency of CSOs in the project area.

Combined sewer separation activities within the Locke Street Area include construction of storm drains, manholes and catch basins; rehabilitation of existing sewer pipes and manholes; water main improvements; and site restoration, including paving.

The total project cost is approximately $15,400,000. The City obtained a CWSRF loan for approximately $9,250,000.
