This project will remedy an ongoing challenging maintenance and potential environmental concern for the sewer along Tracyton Beach Road in East Bremerton. This 3,000 feet of 8-inch diameter sewer requires weekly maintenance by City operations staff due to the low flow velocities through the sewer line. The proposed design is to slip-line this pipeline to increase flow velocity through the main and use pumps to convey sewage through the pipeline. The benefits of this project include reduced operations and maintenance costs, reduction in the possibility of SSOs, reduction in sewer odors and decreased worker risk.
Project Status
In December 2024, the City awarded a final design contract to Kennedy Jenks. Project design began in January 2025. Design and environmental permitting are expected to be completed 2026. The City has identified two potential sites for locating the pump stations that are integral to the design. The City is coordinating the applications for power service with Puget Sound Energy, and natural gas service with Cascade Natural Gas.
Public Comment
The City will hold a Community Meeting on Wednesday, April 29, 2026 to discuss the project scope and impacts to the community during and after construction. The meeting will be held in Council Chambers at the Norm Dicks Community Center, 345 6th Street, Bremerton, WA, beginning at 5:00 pm.
