Challenge:
Developing a resort retirement community with lakes, golf courses, restaurants in the rocky, steep terrain of eastern Tennessee.
Fairfield Glade, Tennessee, is one of E/One's largest and oldest projects, dating back to the 1970s when pressure sewer was new technology. ALL-TERRAIN SEWER is a perfect fit for the topography:
Bluffs, gorges, and rolling hills
200- to 300-foot elevation changes, resulting in extreme head conditions
Shallow soil to rock
Solution:
Fairfield Glade is an on-going project with a long and large builout. Grinder pump stations need to be installed only when homes are built.
Serving lakefront lots would have been impossible without ALL-TERRAIN SEWER — the cost of the lift stations alone would have made the project cost-prohibitive. The flexibility of pressure sewer design allows developers to site homes on lots in order to maximize lake views and preserve trees.
