Construction should begin soon on a sewage plant being built by the Westmoreland Fayette Municipal Sewage Authority.
They should be ready to start sticking a shovel to the ground in February, I would think, said Tom Seaman, a Scottdale Borough representative to the Westmoreland Fayette Municipal Sewage Authority.
Seman gave borough council members an update on the construction of a sewage treatment plant during council's recent meeting.
In a quick year in review, Seaman told council that in January 2014, the Glenn Schwartz property was acquired so the authority could build the plant. In March, the authority acquired the balance of the rights of way needed to install the interceptor lines.
In May, the authority established interim construction financing in which it borrowed about $15.5 million from First National Bank at an interest rate of .01067 to buy the equipment needed to build the plant.
Once the plant is built, the authority will go with a regular bond issue for 40 years.
In June, the authority accepted new board member Diane Figg, who represents East Huntingdon.
The authority agreed in August to charge a 5 percent collection service fee, which equals about $5,000, against the $12 collected for Scottdale Borough that covers the storm water/sewage separation project loan, Seaman said.
If the borough were to collect the fee, it could cost the borough about $10,000, he said.
In September, the authority advertised the project for bids, and in October, it accepted bids. Port Vue Plumbing won the main contractor bid at $12,346,000, A-1 Electric won the electrical contract with a bid of $1,080,000 and Ligonier Construction was awarded the bid of $1,411,470.84 to run the new interceptor lines from Swedetown down to the plant.
