Projects

Construction of a new spillway at the end of Glenville Lake is complete. The project replaced the existing spillway located off Filter Plant Drive and required the Lake to be drained. The spillway, built in the early 1900's, controls the flow of water out of Glenville Lake downstream into the Little Cross Creek.

The project did not impact the operation of PWC’s Glenville Lake Water Treatment Facility as the plant also pumps water from the Cape Fear River.  Access to the lake for fishing or recreational use at Mazarick Park has resumed.
