It has been a part of the area's history acting as an eastern/western route between Port Neches and West Port Arthur, even before it became a State Highway under the jurisdiction of the Texas Department of Transportation. The exponential growth in the last 10 years at the intersection of Highway 69 and Highway 365 limited the availability of land for future growth pushing development west on highway 365. WATER & SEWER FACILITIES The residential or commercial growth of any area is highly dependent on the availability of water and wastewater infrastructure. The Water and wastewater piping and related appurtenances infrastructure is fairly new in the recently developed areas and has been built according to City of Port Arthur Standards and Specifications. The potable water system is in good condition with a capacity that will meet the demand. The wastewater system, based on the current and projected future demand, will require modifications, rehabilitation and expansion to provide uninterrupted services, protect the public health and the environment. According to City records, the Hill Crest-Hwy 365 Lift Station was originally constructed in 1963 and today it receives the wastewater flows from the newly developed area through a 36" Vitrified Clay Tile (VCT) trunk line from Jimmy Johnson Blvd. area through the pipelines corridor ending at the lift station on Hwy 365. (See attached aerial photo). PRELIMINARY STUDY Recent review of the total peak flows indicates that lift station located on Hwy 365(Hill Crest lift station) requires rehabilitation and/or expansion in order to have enough pumping capacity for projected future development. In addition, the gravity sanitary sewer line ending in existing lift station must be enlarged to accept additional flow for the future developments. (See attached aerial photo with peak the flow demand area). A preliminary evaluation of the area shows the following to be the approximate sewage flow during the high demand. Total gallons per minute during peak flow (gpm) Approximately 3,909 Hill Crest-HWY 365 Lift Station capacity (gpm) 2,000+ For final design numbers, an engineering study is recommended.
