_{Construction at the Saddle Creek Retention Treatment Basin (RTB) Project continues. The underground basin has been completely backfilled and construction of the chemical storage and operations building has begun (shown at left). When completed, the RTB will use dewatering pumps to empty the facility after a wet weather event has ended. These pumps will convey captured combined sewage volume into the downstream Papillion Creek Interceptor sewer for treatment at the Papillion Creek Water Resource Recovery Facility (PCWRRF). Above ground improvements include a building to house controls, grit and screening equipment, and chemicals. The building will provide office space for full-time operations staff, some additional city offices and maintenance for the facility. An odor control system will be installed to address the risk of odors from the facility. The site will include fencing and lighting for security purposes. Deliveries will occur regularly but are not expected outside of typical business hours.}
