Active Projects

 30. PROJECT:Evanston Master Plan
LEVEL:New Application
SPONSOR:City of Evanston
LOCATION:Uinta County
PROGRAM:New Development

PROJECT INFORMATION:
Evanston has experienced considerable growth and is nearing the capacity of its water supply system. The city presently has adequate raw water supply and reservoir storage. A major problem is the demand for treated water to irrigate parks, ball field and other large green areas. The city's system uses water from the Bear River and Sulphur Creek Reservoir as well as four in-town wells. The application requests that the resources be evaluated to determine the most cost effective means of providing an adequate water supply to the residents of Evanston in the future.

RECOMMENDED LEGISLATIVE ACTION:
The WWDC recommends the project be incorporated into the New Development Program at Level II status with an appropriation of $85,000.
