Site work for a water / sewer project in Williamsport, Pennsylvania. Conceptual plans call for site work for a water / sewer project.

Davidson Township Sewer Authority provides wastewater and sewage treatment for the Village of Sonestown. The Village of Sonestown is in a rural area of Sullivan County and has about 200 residents. The village has no access to public water supplies and the residents and businesses utilize wells for the drinking water. The original treatment plant is failing and is at the end of its functioning lifespan. The current Sand Distribution System experiences clogging and bio-growth in the distribution piping that does not allow the wastewater to distribute evenly throughout the surface of the sand filters. The Village of Sonestown sits along Muncy Creek and has experienced many high-water events that have disrupted the operation of the plant. These events can cause an overflow of sewage due to cracks and breaks in the gravity lines. The residents have settling tanks that need to be pumped out on a continual basis and some have become displaced during high water events. In 2023, the Sonestown Sewer System Improvements project (Phase I) addressed the immediate concerns that affected the plant's current operation. Five new pumps and control panels were installed in the Main Street pump station and the Wastewater Treatment Plant (WWTP). Inflow and Infiltration issues were also addressed at the Main Street Pump Station. Some preliminary design work, including initial mapping, site layouts, and invoices for previous work, will be available to the selected consultant for their considered use. Phase II is vital for the integrity of the system and to provide uninterrupted service for decades to come to the Village of Sonestown. Phase II of the Sonestown Sewer System project will utilize new sewer lines throughout the entire village replacing the deteriorating gravity system and will include a new package treatment plant. The new treatment plant will provide advanced wastewater treatment and needs to be safe from the risk of flooding during high-water events, making the new plant flood resistant. If the existing settling tanks are to be used, grinder pumps will need to be installed in each tank. These proposals are to be used as a reference by the engineer, but the parties interested are open to changes that will increase efficiency and lower the cost of construction and maintenance. All design suggestions will be reviewed by all interested parties and incorporated into the final design plan as necessary The scope of work in this project includes the complete installation of the following: New Wastewater Treatment Package, designed to withstand flood water inundation. Installation of new sewer lines throughout the system. The design will be at the discretion of the retained engineer.
