EASTERN URBAN GROWTH AREA SEWER MAIN PROJECT COMPLETED AND UNDER BUDGET
August 13, 2009 - The Eastern Urban Growth Area (EUGA) of Port Angeles is the unincorporated area east of the Port Angeles City limits from Del Guzzi Drive east to Morse Creek.
Realizing that providing basic sewer infrastructure into the EUGA would provide economic and environmental health benefits to both City and County residents, the City of Port Angeles and Clallam County worked in partnership to extend sanitary sewer services to properties located in the vicinity.
Extending the City's sanitary sewer system into the EUGA had been considered for over 20 years. The sewer system will enable commercial and residential property owners to realize the full economic potential of their property, while also resolving the environmental concerns of failing septic systems.
Development potential was previously severely limited because space was needed to provide room for a septic tanks and drainfields. Environmental concerns from old and failing septic systems along critical areas, rivers, and other drainages, made it wise to plan and provide sewer service into this area......
