Major Infrastructure Improvements Underway in Bay Village! ???? Independence Excavating is leading the construction of a 1.3 million-gallon underground storage tank across from the Bay Village Middle School. This $8.6 million project is a crucial step in bringing the city into compliance with the Federal Clean Water Act and Ohio EPA regulations. The project includes 11-foot diameter, 300-foot-long pipes connecting to the tank, helping to improve wastewater management at the Rocky River Wastewater Treatment Plant. Once completed, the site will be transformed into athletic fields, providing long-term benefits to the community. A huge shoutout to our crews for keeping the site clean and minimizing traffic disruptions while making progress on this important infrastructure upgrade!
