New Hanover, CFPUA to hold septic systems public meeting

New Hanover County and Cape Fear Public Utility Authority will hold a public, pre-construction meeting at 7 p.m. Tuesday at Myrtle Grove Middle School, 901 Piner Road in Wilmington, to discuss their joint effort to replace failing septic systems in the Marquis Hills area.

As the project approaches its construction phase, affected residents are invited to listen to a presentation detailing the work and schedule for the project.

The county and CFPUA will provide the public with contact information to relay questions during the course of the construction and information about what will occur following construction, including the mandatory connection process.

Marquis Hills area homes have historically had the highest rate of septic tank failure in New Hanover County.

The county, in partnership with CFPUA, received a low-interest loan from the North Carolina Department of Environment and Natural Resources to install sewer into the area and permanently remove the need for septic systems. The project is expected to take 24 to 30 months.
