PROJECT INFORMATION:
The Corner Mountain area is located north of Centennial, Wyoming. The
District boundaries include up to 350 potential taps, but planning has
been based on 90 taps. The District requested WWDC assistance to
determine the feasibility of constructing a groundwater based
centralized water system. The WWDC has completed a Level I analysis of
the areas around Centennial, Wyoming.
The Level I study delineated the potential service areas, identified and
evaluated water supply alternatives, and developed preliminary plans and
cost estimates. Drilling a groundwater well appears to be the best
alternative at this point. Pumping water from Centennial was analyzed,
however, it was too costly to be given further consideration.
RECOMMENDED LEGISLATIVE ACTION:
The WWDC recommends that the project be removed from "hold" status and
advanced to Level II with an appropriation of $350,000.
