Lakeland Hills Pump Station replacement
The Lakeland Hills Pump Station Replacement Project will replace the aging Lakeland Hills Pump Station and build a new facility in Auburn to upgrade sewer services in south King County.
Project description
King County owns and operates the Lakeland Hills Pump Station. King County will replace the aging Lakeland Hills Pump Station and build a new facility in Auburn to upgrade sewer services in south King County. The Lakeland Hills Pump Station is an important part of King County’s connected systems of pipes and pumps. The pump station moves sewage from homes, schools, and businesses in the Auburn area to South Treatment Plant in Renton to be treated, eventually sending it off safely into the Puget Sound. Replacing the pump station will prevent sewage overflows and help serve the growing population of Auburn for many years.

Lakeland Hills Pump Station new site options identified
Watch the recording of our February 13th session!
We covered updates on the alternative sites, answered questions, and listened to community feedback.
In January 2024, King County gathered feedback on the location of the proposed wastewater pump station. Your input was invaluable in helping us understand community perspectives and priorities.
We are excited to share three proposed site alternatives:
- Existing pump station
- North of the existing pump station
- Across Oravetz Road, adjacent to Mill Pond Park
*Sizes of the site alternatives are approximate and may not reflect exact measurements.
Read our latest mailer update for more information about the proposed sites.
