Charlotte Water and the City of Mount Holly celebrated the official commissioning of the Mount Holly Pump Station at Tuckaseege Park. This transformative moment reinforces our commitment to providing the best regional water infrastructure for our community.

The new pump station now connects Mount Holly’s wastewater system to Charlotte Water’s regional network through specially installed pipelines that run approximately 65 feet beneath the Catawba River and Long Creek. Wastewater from Mount Holly homes and businesses will flow to the new Mount Holly Pump Station, which then pumps it through these underwater pipelines to Charlotte Water’s Long Creek Pump Station. From there, it will be treated at existing Charlotte Water facilities.

This commissioning marks a major milestone in the larger Stowe Regional Water Resource Recovery Facility project. By transitioning Mount Holly’s wastewater service to Charlotte Water, we are creating a more resilient and sustainable system that protects water quality in the Catawba River and supports the future growth of our communities.

We extend our gratitude to everyone who joined us for this historic celebration. This achievement reflects a true connection across communities and shows what is possible when we work together to protect our water resources for generations to come.
