Construction begins on Town Wastewater Treatment Plant upgrade

Submitted by the Town of Friday Harbor

Unscheduled construction on the Town’s wastewater treatment plant began Saturday, Sept. 13, between 8 a.m. and 5:30 p.m. This unanticipated change in the published work schedule is the result of limited subcontractor availability to conduct required drilling operations. Work is expected to be completed within one day after which the regular project construction schedule will resume 7 a.m. to 5:30 p.m. Monday through Friday. “This is not how we wanted to begin this project,” said Town Administrator Denice Kulseth. “We recognize how disruptive this will be for the neighborhood and greatly appreciate the public’s patience.”

Questions regarding the current project should be directed to Town Public Works Director Mike Liptack at 360-378-2154.
