2011 - 2016 Capital Improvement Program
| Project #9004, Elm Creek Interceptor | |
Description: Metropolitan Council has completed 12 miles of the main stem of the Elm Creek Interceptor. Eight of those miles extend from the CAB Interceptor in Brooklyn Park (Regent Ave) westerly to I-94 and CSAH 30 in Maple Grove (Phases I & II and Trench Sheeting). The other 4 miles are located between Elm Road in southern Maple Grove to Hamel in the City of Medina (Medina Leg). The City of Maple Grove has constructed 4.5 miles of the main stem linking these two Council interceptor segments, between I-94 southwesterly to Elm Road. Another 1-1/4 miles of a future branch to southeast Corcoran was constructed by Maple Grove. The Council will eventually acquire ownership of those sewers from the City. |

In addition to the above completed projects, in 2005 relocation began of approximately 7,000 feet of the Elm Creek Interceptor along with 3,900 feet of the new Dayton-Hassan extension in coordination with MnDOT's work along CSAH 81. The relocation resulted from the MnDOT re-design of the realignment of CSAH 81 in Maple Grove for the future interchange with TH 610. This interceptor project was completed in 2007.
Phase 1 of the Dayton-Hassan Extension was completed in 2008. The remaining gravity sewer, renamed the North Rush Creek Extension, with service to northeast Corcoran, is under design. The timing of construction depends on the pace that development resumes in this sector. The shallow gravity sewer portion of the South Corcoran extension was completed in 2009. An associated lift station will be coordinated with Corcoran's trunk sewer improvements.
The interceptor and its branches are needed to serve planned growth in the Elm Creek watershed, while maximizing the use of available capacity in the Council's interceptor system and Metropolitan Treatment Plant. Future growth beyond the capacity of the interceptor system is proposed to be handled by the Northwest Interceptor Improvements and in the long-term, the future proposed Crow River Water Reclamation Plant.
