Public Utilities Department The Public Utilities Department is responsible for all maintenance of water and wastewater (sewer) facilities.
Contact the Finance Department to begin or end utility service or if you have questions about your utility bill. Drinking Water To ensure adequate supply now and in the future, the Town of Holly Springs buys treated drinking water from two sources. • Harnett County - 2 million gallons daily with the ability to obtain an additional 1 million gallons for a total of 3 million gallons per day. Harnett County draws water from the Cape Fear River for treatment in Lillington. Water reaches Holly Springs through a 36-inch diameter pipe that could carry up to 10 million gallons a day. • City of Raleigh - Allocates up to 1.2 million gallons daily. Raleigh draws from Falls Lake and pumps treated water to Holly Springs' system through a 16-inch diameter line along Holly Springs Road. The Town's water system includes three water towers with a total storage capacity of 2.3 million gallons. The Consumer Confidence Report is an annual report that details the quality of drinking water that Holly Springs distributes to its customers. Wastewater Treatment Holly Springs has treatment capacity of 1.75 million gallons a day at its wastewater plant, which discharges into Utley Creek in the Cape Fear River basin.
Discharging Treated Wastewater The Town has a permit to discharge up to 2.4 million gallons of treated wastewater into Utley Creek daily and is in the process of increasing the amount the Town is allowed to discharge. Longer range, Holly Springs plans to continue treating wastewater while using a regional pipeline to discharge into the Cape Fear River. The reuse system saves drinking water by using treated wastewater for irrigation and certain manufacturing processes. The Wastewater Performance Report summarizes treatment and collection system performance throughout town annually. Reuse for Irrigation To preserve drinking water, construction is under way on a system to pipe treated wastewater for irrigation in what will be the largest project of its kind in the state. The piping system will serve the 12 Oaks development, a golf course community under construction off New Hill Road at the western edge of Holly Springs. Contact Amy Moore |
