How will Omaha pay for $1.6 billion in sewer separation?
June 29, 2009

Omaha faces a massive bill -- estimated at over a billion and a half dollars over the coming decades -- to pay for separating its stormwater sewers from its sanitary sewers. The cost of the project is huge, and at such a size, finding the best funding opportunities could save the city additional millions over the long term. The city is now looking at whether to use bonds subsidized by the Federal government, issued as part of the economic-stimulus package, to help pay for the project. The city's sewer system has an average of 58 overflows a year, and the separation project is intended to reduce that number to four.
