Overview

Riverside Amphitheater and Water Quality Improvement project is a two-phase project consisting of a new public park, relocation of two water mains and the elimination of two combined sewer overflows into the White River in Anderson. READI grant funds will be used for the construction of the 2 water main relocations to include erosion control, water main relocation, mobilization and demobilization, site work prep, dewatering, soft costs such as engineering fees, permits, inspection and legal fees. The project will eliminate approximately 19 million gallons of combined sewage from entering the White River which is 2.61% of the total CSO overflow. There will be 97 fewer overflow discharge events from these 2 CSO points which results in a reduction of 14.2% of overflow events. The two CSO's will eliminate millions of gallons of combined storm/wastewater form the White River flowing south to Hamilton and Marion Counties. Approximate timeline is January 10th, 2023 to December 30th, 2025. Anderson will provide local match of $4,800,000.
