Moyock wastewater treatment plant expansion

The county committed up to $8.5 million to start building new drainage basins at the Moyock Regional plant, aiming for October 2026 completion and roughly 100,000 gallons per day of added capacity. Businesses waiting to hook up to sewer now have a date to plan around, with bigger expansions hinging on state and federal funding.

Mid-Currituck Bridge funding gap
