Water System Improvement Updates

Nanofiltration Water Treatment Plant: The plant site is starting to look like a building as block is laid to form walls. WRH is completing footings, grading, and coordinating with plumbers to install drainage in preparation for pouring the floor in the coming weeks. Electricians are burying pipe to power the treatment units and pumps. The clear well (where treated water is stored before distribution) is nearly finished and being prepped for painting.

Water Tower: The final concrete pour for the pedestal is scheduled for September 15, bringing the structure to 120 feet. Steel for the tank will arrive soon, with assembly beginning in November. In the meantime, electrical service, interior piping, and ladders will be installed. Once complete, the tower will stand 164 feet tall.

Jordan Well No. 10: A test pump was conducted today, and results are pending. If successful, this will wrap up the current phase of the well saga.
