According to Fox Carolina, South Carolina state officials have approved plans for a new wastewater treatment facility in southern Oconee County. The plans were approved Thursday, but have been in the making for 45 years, Fox Carolina reported.
Oconee Joint Regional Sewer Authority, which already provides services to multiple towns, will be able to provide water treatment to people in the southern part of the county.
The project, known as the I-85 Corridor Expansion, consists of approximately 8,400 linear feet of gravity sewer, two pump stations, and 16,500 linear feet of force main pipe to serve the areas near exits 1 and 2 on I-85
The OJRSA will begin contacting potential new customers in January
