The Town of Halifax has received a Sewer System Asset Inventory and Assessment Project # AIA-D-0218, grant from the American Rescue Plan Act (ARPA) award in the amount of $200,000 by the North Carolina Department of Environmental Quality (NCDEQ). The AIA grant will provide for a sewer asset inventory and assessment to include all gravity sewers, force mains and lift stations. This data will be used to develop an accurate base map to include gravity sewer, force mains and lift stations. This base map will include the diameter, material and age of gravity sewers and force mains; The age, number and capacity of pumps, power reliability, and telemetry for lift stations, and a unique ID number for each asset. Data will be obtained using a variety of methods: fieldwork, investigative methods (smoke testing, video inspection, lift station inspections, etc.), review of existing system maps and as-built drawings, operator knowledge, and other methods. Data obtained from the asset inventory and condition assessment will be used to build a complete asset registry. In turn, the registry will provide the basis of a 10 year CIP, which will identify and prioritize capital projects. The CIP will concentrate on projects that are comprised of medium to high risk assets, assets operating well beyond their useful life, and assets critical to system operation. The Town will use the Asset Management Plan / CIP as a planning tool finance and implement capital projects The inventory/assessment update and GPS mapping will be completed through the partnership between the Town and a procured engineering firm.
