Need to provide sewage collection and treatment for all of unincorporated Jefferson
Parish. On the East Bank there are a couple of areas without sewage, the Office Building
on Airline by Abita Springs Water Company and near the Veterans and David Drive intersection.
On the West Bank parts of the Waggaman area are developing without community sewerage.
The sewerage department is investigating the establishment of regional lift stations
to serve areas not yet developed. The parish will locate and construct lift stations
as an alternative to accepting a series of small lift stations that developers place
in individual developments. This is a way to reduce operation and maintenance costs.
There are three (3) existing plants on the West Bank. The Harvey Sewage Treatment
Plant has the capacity to serve full development of its service area. The Bridge City
Sewage Treatment Plant has excess capacity to serve future development.
The Marrero Sewage Treatment Plant is currently overloaded. Expansion of the Marrero
Plant is in the design phase with construction schedule to begin by end of 2002. Jefferson
Parish is studying the establishment of a consolidated regional West Bank sewage treatment
plant in three (3) possible areas: the Destrehan Avenue area, the Kelvin Landfill
area and Avondale rail yard area.
