PROJECT DESCRIPTION:
The City of Newcastle plans to make improvements to the municipal
system and to their ability to expand service to neighboring entities,
e.g. Cambria, West End, Salt Creek, and Blacktail. Regional solutions
were explored in the 1999 Level II study, which also provided for
the drilling of a Madison formation well for the Salt Creek Water
District.
RECOMMENDED LEGISLATIVE ACTION:
The WWDC recommends the project to be advanced in the New Development
Program to Level III with an appropriation of $2,200,000. The financing
would include a 60% grant for $1,320,000 and a 40% loan of $880,000
at 7.25% interest for 30 years.
