2001 LEGISLATIVE REPORT
Active Projects

PROJECT INFORMATION:
There are approximately 70 residents living in the Lakeview Improvement and Service District with approximately 29 potential taps in the district. Private wells of most Lakeview residents provide poor quality ground water high in nitrates, sulfates, and selenium. Consequently, most residents haul water from town. In order to provide Lakeview residents with suitable drinking water, the Lakeview Service and Improvement District would like to construct an 8-inch PVC water supply pipeline system for their district which would tie into an existing Central Wyoming Regional Water System 16 inch transmission line.

The legislature appropriated $390,000 to connect the district to the Central Wyoming Regional System. A bond election was held November 7, 2000, to allow the district to incur the necessary debt to construct the system. Civil Engineering Professionals Incorporated of Casper has been retained to do the design and construction engineering. Currently the project schedule calls for completion in fall of 2002.

RECOMMENDED LEGISLATIVE ACTION:
No legislative action is required.
