PROJECT INFORMATION:
The Oakley Subdivision is organizing as the Oakley Improvement and Service District and would
like to move forward with the water supply pipeline from Kemmerer/Diamondville JPB hook-up to
Oakley as outlined in the level II study funded by the WWDC in 2000. The pipeline would consist
of a 4 inch transmission line from the Kemmerer-Diamondville Joint Powers Board hookup in
Diamondville and run along Wyoming Highway 30 across the Hams Fork River and Union Pacific
railroad into Oakley.
RECOMMENDED LEGISLATIVE ACTION:
The WWDC recommends the project be incorporated into the New Development Program at Level
III with an appropriation of $176,000. The financing plan is a grant of 50%,$176,000, and a loan of
50%, $176,000, to be secured by the sponsor through other sources. The WWDC also recommends
that the authorization be conditioned on successful formation of the district.
