Thayne sewer project gets underway

The Town of Thayne will spend the next several weeks upgrading and improving its sewer lagoon system. The goal of the project is to “get something better and more efficent” in place, said Mayor Bob King.
“The system we have in place down there is about 30 years old at this point and it is just not working properly,” he said. “We are bypassing the first two lagoons and taking the main line and putting into cell three. We are doing this so that we can drain the first two sewer cells and install new liners and aerators. We will also be getting new pumps.”
In addition to the upgrades to the sewer cells, the town’s sewer building will also be improved, King said.
“We are going to be installing a new venting system and some fans to help prevent the buildup of methane gas in the building,” he said.
