TOWN OF COVE CITY SEWER USERS: HWY 55 SEWER TIE IN PROJECT IN CONNECTION WITH DOVER SEWER TO KINSTON
IF YOU HAVE QUESTIONS, PLEASE CALL 252-633-1595

We are going to try again on April 25, from 10pm to 5am. Please do a PSA to your customers asking them to conserve their utilities during this period.

Tie in Procedure
As discussed yesterday, here are the procedures to begin pumping down the lift stations for the new line tie in at NC 55 E. Bridge project.

Each lift station is to be manually pumped down to the lowest safe level possible without allowing the pumps to be clogged by Debrie if any were to exist. Start with all of the perimeter pump stations, leaving the main pump station for the last to be completed.
All pump stations after being pumped down should be left in off position, however they will require constant monitoring to prevent any overflows. Should any station be in danger of eminent overflow, pump down to a level enough to prevent that from happening.

The goal is to provide as much time as possible so that the contractors can complete their work. Enough time should be allotted for the operator to pump down these stations while simultaneously Dover will be doing the same.

I will stay in contact with the Cove City operator during this entire period so that we can make adjustments as needed throughout this process. The date of the tie in has not been given at this time, however it will be done during low flow conditions. I will notify you when the date is given. I would also advise that Cove City and the Town of Dover make every effort to notify its customers prior to this date of what is going to happen and to ask that they try to conserve as much water use as possible during this period.
