     Project officials are optimistic construction work at Hampton’s new wastewater treatment plant will wrap up ahead of its September deadline.
     Engineer Tom Madden met with the Hampton City Council last Thursday to discuss the $8.4 million project and explain recent expenses. Despite previous concerns, Madden said progress at the facility this spring has given him no reason to worry about future deadlines.
     “It’s going really well,” he said. “Right now, everything looks great timing-wise. I have no concerns about it.”
     King Construction has recently ramped up work on pipelines leading from the old wastewater plant to the new site. Officials were worried pipe work could potentially delay the project, however, Madden said workers have made significant progress this spring.
