PROJECT INFORMATION:
There are approximately 150 people residing within the 33 Mile Road
Improvement and Service District. Residents currently use poor quality
groundwater or haul water from nearby municipalities. There are
potentially more than 50 taps in the district. Residents report bills
in excess of $80.00/month to haul water from the Casper area or treat
(R/O) poor quality groundwater.
33 Mile Road Improvement and Service District requested a study to
investigate options for connecting to the Natrona County Regional Water
System. A new regional line will soon be completed adjacent to the 33
Mile Road Improvement and Service District making connection
economically feasible. However, the feasibility of constructing
additional transmission lines and a distribution system needs to be
assessed.
A Level I project is proposed to 1) assess options for connection of 33
Mile Road Improvement and Service District to the Natrona County
Regional Water System, 2) assess distribution, storage and booster
station options (if needed), 3) prepare preliminary designs and cost
estimates for reasonable alternatives, and 4) determine financing
options.
RECOMMENDED LEGISLATIVE ACTION:
The WWDC recommends that the project be incorporated into the New
Development Program at Level II with a proposed appropriation of
$25,000.00.
