Service Authority to begin major water, sewer main installation

The Prince William County Service Authority is beginning a major water and sewer main construction project along Davis Ford Road in February.

The new water main will help improve the reliability of the water system in the Occoquan Forest residential community while the new sewer main will convey wastewater from the community to the H.L. Mooney Advanced Water Reclamation Facility in Woodbridge for treatment.

Currently, wastewater from the Occoquan Forest community is treated at a small, localized water reclamation facility off Davis Ford. A new pump station will be constructed to replace the aging treatment plant in order to meet Virginia Department of Environmental Quality requirements.

The project is expected to start Feb. 2 and be completed by the middle of 2016. Traffic will be managed on Davis Ford Road and delays are to be expected during the process of constructing the water and sewer mains.
