The Metropolitan District Commission has laid out its plans to invest $32 million toward rehabilitating and improving aging and failing sewer lines throughout town. The project, which aims to reduce and eliminate sanitary sewer overflow as well as reduce sewage and nitrogen released into the Connecticut River, will get started later this month and will take over two years to complete. In West Hartford, aging sewer pipes on private properties remain in place, with Waterbury saying some that were installed in the 1930s still exist. These clay pipes can cause problems with their own sewer network when they fail. The expected end date for the complete project is February 2027.
