Upper Northwest Interceptor Section 9 (UNWI 9) and Associated Northeast Area (NEA) Relief Projects
Overview
UNWI 9 & NEA-2 Complete!
Sacramento Regional County Sanitation District (SRCSD) and Sacramento Area Sewer District are pleased to announce the completion of a major portion of the Upper Northwest Interceptor (UNWI) work. Both UNWI 9 and Associated Northeast Area (NEA) Relief Project 2 along Auburn Boulevard and Old Auburn Road are complete.
NEA-1 Now Under Construction
Construction crews will continue to work on the NEA 1 segment along Fair Oaks and Oak Avenue throughout the coming year. Construction is expected to be complete in 2010. Continue to check this Web site for updated information.
Thank you for your patience during the UNWI 9 and NEA 2 construction work.
The complete UNWI line will run west along Old Auburn Road, Auburn Boulevard and Greenback Lane. It then runs along Elkhorn Boulevard in North Highlands, through Rio Linda and finally southbound next to Natomas Boulevard/Truxel Road. There, it ties into the New Natomas Pump Station and the Lower Northwest Interceptor. The project is necessary because the current wastewater system is nearing capacity.
