Norwich breaks ground on $200 million sewage treatment plant

Norwich Public Utilities General Manager Chris LaRose called the plant the largest capital project in city history while Federal Environmental Protection Agency New England regional administrator David Cash said it is the largest sewer infrastructure project in the state. And Jason Nickerson, chairman of Torrington-based general contractor CH Nickerson & Co. said it is the largest project in his company’s 84-year history. Construction will be tricky, with large buses, boats on trailers and dozens of workers traveling on Falls Avenue daily. The plant must also remain in operation throughout the construction, as aging sewage digesters, wastewater treatment buildings, large sewage pipes and outflow pipes are replaced.
