Public Comment, Meetings and Hearings on Proposed Projects
Projects Under Construction Brightwater Treatment Plant Project and the Ballinger Portal Construction is taking place at five sites; the treatment plant site, and four portals in Bothell, Shoreline, Kenmore, and at Point Wells. The entire project is scheduled to be completed in 2010. This includes the pipes and facilities that bring wastewater to and from the plant, and a marine outfall where treated wastewater is discharged to Puget Sound.
To limit disruptions, the system is being built almost entirely below ground in tunnels 40 to 400 feet deep. There are five shafts, called portals, where workers, tunnel boring machines, and materials enter and exit the tunnels during construction.
