The Utility Division 2006-2007 workplan supports the missions of the County and the Engineering Department with the management of the Triangle Wastewater Treatment Plant (TWWTP) and collection system. The Division manages the contract for operations and maintenance of the TWWTP and collection system, plant and collection system improvements and rehabilitation, approval of new customers, and the inspection of new and existing wastewater infrastructure.
The TWWTP serves the southeastern portion of Durham County inside and outside the City limits and the Research Triangle Park. The plant also serves a portion of the Town of Cary on an interim basis through calendar year 2010. The County has made significant improvements to the TWWTP to improve environmental performance and anticipated capacity for the next 20 years.
The Division is dedicated to promoting environmentally sound wastewater development and assist residents with failed septic systems in connecting to public sewer. New development increases the tax base, while connection of failed septic systems improves the environment.
