“Land application” of treated wastewater in Middlesex County has been talked about for years. Land application is an alternative to discharging the treated water into a river or creek.
The Hampton Roads Sanitation District (HRSD) has committed to run a sewer line from Saluda down General Puller Highway (Route 33) and Twiggs Ferry Road (Route 3) to Mathews and ultimately to Yorktown for treatment. It’s slated to be online in 2024.
