Project proposes to demolish existing lift station #5 pump but retain the existing lift station wet well. A new lift station pump will be installed approximately 105 feet west of the existing lift station pump and will include new pump suction lines to the existing wet well. A new generator and generator enclosure will be installed to provide emergency power to the lift station pump. The generator enclosure will be located both in the Harborview Drive right-of-way and on private property (2825 Harborview Drive). The new lift station pump and generator enclosure will be located in a shoreline buffer zone, designated as Low Intensity and part of Shoreline Planning Segment C. Permanent easements will be obtained to locate the pump and generator enclosure.
