Sewer improvement work coming to two Trumbull Co. areas

WARREN — Dirt started to turn Thursday for the first phase of the Little Squaw Creek sewer project in Liberty, which will be followed next week by the start of the first phase of a project in the Scott Street area of Newton Township.

The Little Squaw Creek project will provide sewers along state Route 193, heading north from the Tibbetts-Wick intersection to just south of Crews Hood Road near the northern Liberty Township line. Construction is likely to be complete in March.

The project involves construction of 6,000 feet of 18-inch sanitary sewer lines and 400 feet of 21-inch sewer line. It will serve about 28 customers in a mostly rural area.

It will cost about $1.3 million, of which $450,000 came from a $174,000 grant from the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers and $174,000 came from a grant from the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency.
