- Construction of a new 500 gallon per minute Water

- Community Center property.
- Construction of a Well Meter Building, installation of 2
- new 500 gallon per minute glacial drift wells,
- rehabilitation of an existing well, and the capping and
- sealing of existing wells at the old water treatment
- plant site.
- Construction of a new 300,000 gallon elevation water

- Installation of about 5,000 feet of new distribution

The tentative plan by the Project Contractor is to begin to mobilize equipment and materials on Monday, July 26th.

Once construction commences, weekly construction updates will be prepared and submitted for posting on this website to provide information about project progress and schedules for pending project activity. The project is planned to be substantially completed by August 15, 2011.
