Tech Park Feeder Project

Reliability Projects

We're making upgrades to enhance our system's ability to withstand extreme weather and meet energy demands.

Project Specifics
This project is necessary to address an increase in load as a result of new residential and commercial developments in the Central Islip area. 

This project will install approximately 2.5 miles of 750 CU underground cable, 6 PMH switchgears and 3 switches. The project will include installation of 13,200 feet of cable starting at the Tech Park substation on DPW drive. We will utilize horizontal directional drilling or open trenching. Temporary drill pits will be installed in some areas and trenching will be required to tie-in the new cable to existing equipment. 

Timeline
Construction is expected to begin in March 2025 with anticipated completion December 2025. 

Route
Work will take place along the following locations:

  • Tech Park substation on DPW drive continuing underground through the Islip DPW yard and beneath Carleton Avenue
  • Carleton Avenue just south of Court House Drive to Smith Street
  • Court House Drive to Eastview Drive
  • Eastview Drive between Court House Drive and Admission Drive South
