Macomb County in Michigan is in the process of removing approximately 6,000 tons of sediment from the Macomb Interceptor Drain, a critical sewer line.The sediment buildup in the 11-foot-diameter concrete pipe, located 60 feet underground, has reduced the system's sewage flow capacity. Officials trace the blockage back to a 2016 sinkhole incident in Fraser, which led to the collapse of part of the interceptor.The project, estimated to cost $37 million, is considered crucial as failure to address the sediment buildup could result in the sewer line's collapse. This would affect nearly 600,000 residents across 11 communities in Macomb County.
