GENERAL PROJECT

Felton Wastewater Treatment Works upgrade

Starting in March 2024, we will be carrying out works at our sewage treatment works (STW) in Felton. This work is essential and part of a £5million investment project. It will ensure the STW continues to meet the needs of a growing population and that we continue to deliver a reliable and resilient wastewater service for our customers.

Update by Julie Oakley

Good afternoon everyone,

hope you are all enjoying the great british weather, hope its not spoiling everyones plans too much.

I thought I would provide you with an update on the progress of the upgrade to the treatment works in Felton, dispite the weather we have made good progress with the Primary Settlement tank 3 (PST) cone base slab blinding being poured and ready for reinforcement, the groundwater has not been as much of a problem as anticipated. We are making good progress with the duct work and it is ongoing at a good rate. Northern Power Grid (NPG) have succesfully changed the incoming transformer with no issues to the temporary power generation during shut down and the site team are continuing to perform well.

We would like to thank you for all your continued support, co-operation and patience while the works are on going. If you have any queries or questions about the project please feel free to leave a comment below or use the contact details provided.

Thanks again

Julie
