Annual Wastewater Report Card
From July 2018 to June 2019, OWASA treated about 3 billion gallons of wastewater for the Carrboro-Chapel Hill community! We are pleased to launch our Wastewater Report Card and share that we met or surpassed all Federal and State standards. The Report Card is a snapshot of OWASA’s wastewater treatment process. It includes tips on how community members can help protect the wastewater system and information on how OWASA maintains the system. It will be mailed to all OWASA account holders. Printed copies can also be requested by contacting 919-968-4421 or info@owasa.org.
Wastewater pipe repair: Highway 54 & Raleigh Road
The wastewater pipe under Highway 54 and along Raleigh Road delivers half of the community's wastewater flow to the Wastewater Treatment Plant. About 700 feet of this pipe is corroded so we've developed a plan to replace it, starting with the installation of a bypass pipe at Oakwood Drive (so we can re-route the wastewater to access the corroded pipe). We anticipate the project will be complete in September. We apologize for any inconvenience throughout the project and will minimize disruptions as much as possible. View the updates page for project information and upcoming Community Construction Briefings.
