Lift Station #2 located on Westlake Drive SE in Lacey needs to be replaced.  It is the oldest wastewater lift station in the City, constructed in 1970, and has exceeded its life expectancy.  There are also issues with limited site access and safety restrictions.  The City has purchased property on Westlake Drive SE to construct the new wastewater lift station.  The building was recently demolished and the property cleared for the new wastewater lift station. The project is currently in the design phase for the new lift station.  

If you have other questions or comments regarding the project, please contact Puna Lovell, Project Manager, Utility Engineer at plovell@ci.lacey.wa.us or 360-459-4494.
