<strong>Anderson</strong> & <strong>Associates</strong>, <strong>Inc</strong>. provided professional design services for the upgrade of an existing Teaverton<br />
pump station and replacements of approximately 4,700 linear feet of 12” and 18” diameter gravity<br />
sanitary sewer line, 1,600 linear feet of 16” force main, and 20 manholes from the 24” diameter Goose<br />
Creek Interceptor northeast to the force main discharge/outfall manhole located between Tinkling Spring<br />
Road and Summerfield Drive.<br />
In an effort to help the Augusta County Service Authority (ACSA) work with local developers, A&A assisted<br />
the ACSA with the staking of a section of the proposed sanitary sewer line ahead of time. This is so the<br />
ACSA could construct that portion of the proposed gravity sewer line that crossed under a proposed commercial<br />
development that was currently being constructed. This effort allowed the Developer to maintain<br />
on schedule and not be delayed by the sewer improvements. Similarly, it prevented the ACSA from<br />
adversely impacting the business at a later date by the demolition of a section of the new parking lot associated<br />
with the business. By assisting with the construction of that section of sewer independent of the<br />
rest of the project, A&A helped the ACSA avoid the unanticipated cost that would have resulted from the<br />
removal and replacement of the section of asphalt parking lot as well as any hardships the project would<br />
have caused the Contractor and the business.<br />

Updated in 2005<br />
For years the Town of Blacksburg has been monitoring sewer upgrades<br />
and making adjustments on basic 24”X36” tax maps. As the<br />
years passed and the sewer system became more complex, the growing<br />
need for a computerized sewer mapping and modeling system<br />
was apparent. The Town hired <strong>Anderson</strong> & <strong>Associates</strong> to map and<br />
model the Sanitary Sewer System for incorporation into the Town’s<br />
developing GIS (Geographic Information System).<br />
The first step in the plan was surveying critical manhole sites (about<br />
750) around the Town using GPS (Global Positioning Systems) and<br />
conventional surveying. We located approximately 1/3 of the manholes<br />
and the remainder of the manholes were digitized from sewer<br />
mapping. The second step was to inspect the manholes to determine<br />
flow capacity, elevation, pipe materials, and other information pertaining<br />
to a given area. Field data was collected using a hand held computer.<br />
After the implementation of the GIS, a user is able to click on<br />
a specific point in the mapping and pull up a data base of information<br />
including condition and available capacity of a specific sewer line.<br />
In January 1996, the first phase of the Blacksburg Sewer project<br />
was up and running. The interactive computer model of the sanitary<br />
sewer system was the first step in setting up a sanitary sewer GIS to<br />
assist in evaluating system capacity and reduction of infiltration and<br />
inflow in the system.<br />

It includes 4000 feet of new 15-inch pipe, 900 feet of new 12-inch pipe, three road bores, and<br />
a 1.1 million gallons per day (MGD) pump station. The purpose of this project was to provide<br />
more capacity for the future growth of the community and to reduce inflow and infiltration (I&I)<br />
into the overall system. The project involved parallel and in-place pipe installation while maintaining<br />
existing sewer flows. It also involved a stormwater prevention plan and erosion control<br />
measures due to the close proximity of a creek and creek crossings. A&A also provided survey,<br />
mapping, and easement maps for the project area.<br />

The pump station was designed to handle initial startup flows of 760 gpm until downstream<br />
capacity improvements could be made. The pump station ultimate capacity was designed to<br />
be 1,160 gpm and to reach it, the Town only needs to replace the impellars on the two pumps.<br />
The Town is currently correcting the downstream capacity issues and upgrading the pump station<br />
in the summer of 2008.<br />
The Town applied for the Revolving Loan Fund through the Department of Environmental Quality<br />
to receive financing for this project.<br />
