DULUTH, MN (Northland's NewsCenter) --- Northlanders may have noticed a growing hole alongside the Lakewalk over the past couple of weeks.

It's the beginning of a $26 million project to renovate Duluth's sanitary sewer overflow system.

The project includes a new sanitary sewage pump station, an 8 million gallon sewage overflow tank, and replacement of the old utilities operations building and public restroom.

Crews have been working on the project for nearly a year with completion scheduled for sometime in 2012.

The city received $9.9 million in grants to help pay for this project.
