DeKalb County, GA – Efforts to improve sewer service capacity throughout DeKalb County continue Wednesday, July 6, with the launch of the Emerald Castle Sewer Upsizing Project, a press release says. Crews will replace 1500 linear feet of aging sewer lines with new 12” ductile-iron pipes. The line repair project is expected to last approximately 4 months (July to November 2022), barring any weather delays.

Normal construction hours will be from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m., Monday through Friday, excluding major holidays. An increase in construction-related noise and traffic during work hours should be expected.
