Dear Nei�hborhood Residents;
The City of Orono has selected a directional boring contractor to complete the pressure sewer
installation project in the North Lon� Lake East neiQhborhood. This project consists of
di:ectional boring a pressure se�ver line north of the existing houses, and the provision of a
se:��ice stub for each house. Directional boring of the se���er should result in minimal disturbance
to �-our property. The only excavations required will be at the service stub, and flushing
connection stations. These locations are circled on the attached plans. There may- also be minimal
disturbance in the areas where the coztractor sets up the directional boring machine. All
disturbed areas �vill be restored as par of this project. The project schedule is to have the sewer
installed by June 1 st.
Connection to the se��-er is not requi�r�d, but the system �r-ill be available for future hookup upon
pa�-ment of a connection fee. The current connection fee is $11,000 per unit. This connection fee
is updated each year to account for i�flationary increases. In addition to the City connection fee,
there is also a Service Availability C�TQe (SAC) fee that is collected by the City then remitted to
the Metropolitan Council Environmental Services. This fee covers the capital costs for additional
se«-er capacity that is included in the metropolitan interceptor sewers and�vastewater treatment
plants for hzture se��-er connections. This is a pressure se«-er system, and each property owner is
required to install, operate, and maintain their o�vn private residential grinder pump station.
The City will need to acquire a 20-:aot ���ide permanent se��-er easement acro�s your property for
the installation and future maintenance of the sewer. We �vould like to obtain a "Right of Entry"
to allo�v access on }�our property to complete the project construction. After the sewer is
in�talled, the exact pipe location«-ill be surveyed and a leaal description developed for an
easement document. �
