Sailor Bar Pump Station Project Updates
Project Update – November 2023
We are pleased to share that we are nearing completion! The surrounding community can expect to see the contractor onsite performing the final phases of work and testing. The revised anticipated completion timeframe is spring 2024.
The contractor is no longer utilizing the park road system for access and delivery of materials. Thank you to the surrounding community for sharing the road with us during the heavy phases of construction. We will continue to take all reasonable measures to minimize construction impacts as we wrap up the project—including noise, odor, dust, temporary traffic, parking, and property access impacts. Please continue to be alert for construction traffic and exercise caution at all times around construction activities.
Project Update – May 2023
The contractor will be onsite testing and performing work as we move closer to completion. The surrounding community can expect heavy equipment onsite and construction noise at times. The revised anticipated completion timeframe is summer 2023.
While most construction activities will occur inside the project site, please use caution around the facility and on the park road system as construction equipment will be utilizing these roads to access the station and deliver materials. We will take all reasonable measures to minimize construction impacts—including noise, odor, dust, and temporary traffic, parking, and property access impacts. Please be alert for traffic controls and exercise caution at all times around construction activities.
Project Update – Work Continues (posted January 2023)
Construction is currently delayed due to procurement issues of critical electrical components. The revised anticipated completion timeframe is spring 2023. In the interim, the contractor may be onsite performing minor work and the surrounding community can expect heavy equipment onsite and construction noise at times

Project Update – Work Continues (posted March 2022)
New infrastructure including incoming and outgoing pipelines, manholes, and concrete structures continue to be installed as crews work to elevate the new pump station above the 100-year flood plain at the project site. Removal and demolition of what remains of the existing facilities will follow upon completion of the new infrastructure. Construction is anticipated until fall. During this time, the surrounding community can expect heavy equipment onsite and construction noise.

Removal and demolition of the existing facilities as well as work to elevate the ground surface above the 100-year flood plain at the project site continues. In the coming weeks, SacSewer’s contractors will remove the temporary support structures used during the installation of new sewer facilities and begin forming a new retaining wall. Additionally, crews will be installing new pipelines, and concrete structures that will eventually divert sewer flows to the Sailor Bar Pump Station. During this time, the surrounding community can expect heavy equipment onsite and construction noise.

Construction is underway at the Sailor Bar Pump Station. Demolition and removal of existing facilities are progressing steadily and work to elevate the ground above the 100-year flood plain at the project site continues. The contractors will be using the Illinois Avenue entrance and connecting fire roads to deliver construction materials and supplies to the job site.
To keep the sewer in service during the work, a temporary bypass pumping system is being installed to convey wastewater around the section of sewer that is being worked on. Beginning tonight, critical work to connect the bypass system to the existing sewer system will be performed. This work will occur during the hours of 10 p.m. and 6 a.m. when the sewer system experiences low flows and is expected to be complete by Thursday morning.
