New Sewage Plant at ReVenture Park
Charlotte-Mecklenburg Utilities is planning to build a new $197 million wastewater plant in proposed business park on the former Clariant (Sodyeco) property on the west side of the Catawba River. The plant would serve Mt. Holly via a pipe installed under the Catawba River into Mecklenburg County.

Charlotte-Mecklenburg Utilities is pushing a deal with Mount Holly for a new treatment plant — the first to be built by the city in more than 30 years — that could help anchor a renewable-energy business park.
If approved, the water and sewer department would design, build and own the estimated $197 million plant at Long Creek that would be at the south end of the proposed ReVenture “eco-park.” The property is just north of the U.S. National Whitewater Center, at a contaminated Superfund site owned by Clariant Corp.
