The project will consist of constructing a 150,000 gpd expandable package treatment plant adjacent to the existing wastewater treatment plant. This new facility will utilize rectangular sequencing batch reactors (SBR) as the treatment method. The SBRs use a continuous flow biological treatment system, which combine multiple processes in one basin. These will be housed in a new 60 by 180 building. They will include sludge holding tanks. The basins will be aerated by multiple blowers in an adjacent room next to the facility office and control room. The construction of the expansion will require various site work and upgrades to the driveway and grading changes, as well as new electrical service and backup generator. Murder Creek may need some improvements as well, such as removing trees and other barriers downstream from the discharge location if necessary. The more wastewater, which will in turn allow for expansion of Yancey s Fancy facility in Pembroke (creating 10 new jobs and retaining 35 more) as well as allowing large manufacturing projects like Project Cibus (creation of 222 jobs) to locate at BETP.
