David Orr of Government Services Group, the FGUA'S consultant

for Lehigh's sewer and water system, addressed a number of issues regarding the sewage treatment plant.

He said construction has begun on a project that will expand the plant's capacity from 2.5 to 3.5 million gallons by next year. Orr said this expansion should alleviate any existing problems with treated sewage leaks."Our goal and our focus is to rectify this situation," he said.

Resident Robert Anderson questioned whether this expansion would be sufficient to handle the community's continued growth.

Orr assured him that the Florida Department of Environmental Protection will not allow new developments to connect to the system unless the necessary capacity is available.
