History
Between 2001 and 2003, Nash County worked with engineers to develop a capital improvements program (CIP) for
the expansion of the county water system. In response to environmental
concerns, and with state and federal grant funds, in 2002 Nash County
completed the Area I water and sewer systems west of Rocky Mount along and
around Highway 97 up to Joyner's Crossroads. To assist with an economic
development project, and with federal, state, nonprofits, town and county
funds, in 2004 Nash County completed the Area II water and sewer systems to
serve Universal Leaf north of Nashville along Highway 58. As a result of
naturally occurring arsenic found in ground water north of the Town of
Bailey, in 2006, the county completed the Area III system. Several other
smaller system extensions along with an emergency connection to the city of
Wilson have recently been completed. EXISTING SYSTEM MAP

Current
Construction
As a means to secure grant and low interest loan funding, in July of 2007
Nash County created the Central Nash Water and Sewer District (CNWSD), and
on December 11, 2007, voters passed a bond referendum approving the funds
necessary to secure USDA loan/grant dollars for the construction of a four
phase water system expansion.
MAP
The district
board approved construction contracts on June 16. 2008 for Phase I and II of
the system extension which will serve areas around Tar River Reservoir and
Highway 58 South of Nashville with the system serving approximately 600+ new
customers by April of 2009. Phase III of this expansion is currently under
design and construction should be completed by late 2009.

Reduced rates
for new customers connecting to this water system are still in effect, if
interested complete and send in an (application for water sewer service).
Future
Plans
Nash County is moving forward with plans for completion of
Phase 3 and 4, and are looking into providing
water and sewer service to the Town of Castalia and the Town of Red Oak.
