Project Background:

The Livingston County Water and Sewer Authority provides sewer service to approximately 3,600 accounts for sewer collection and wastewater treatment through 54 miles of sewer main, 45 pump stations, and 3 regional wastewater treatment facilities (WWTF’s).  Specifically, 26 pump stations that serve the area around Conesus Lake were installed in 1968.  The continued maintenance and phased improvements of the pump stations is a critical element to providing safe, reliable sanitary sewer collection services for years to come.

An evaluation that was completed identified several improvements at each pump station that serves the area around Conesus Lake, including the replacement of the pumps and controls.  Pump replacements include motors, piping, and valves, and are the most critical components, as a pump (53-years old) or control failure could lead to a sewer overflow into Conesus Lake.   Additional improvements to the pump stations include SCADA upgrades, modifications to duct work and louvers at some of the pump stations, replacement of some stand-by generators, painting and cleaning of the drywells, upgrading the lighting in the building and drywells, replacement of the automatic transfer switches, including locating the generator plug to the exterior of the building and miscellaneous building improvement (repointing, foundation repairs, steps, conduits, etc.)

Total project cost is estimated to be $8,750,000.  The Authority has received a $1,250,000 grant through NYSEFC WIIA program and a $2,500,000 grant through the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law, and a 30-year interest-free loan to complete the project.  The project is expected to be completed by 2026.
