2003 LEGISLATIVE REPORT
Active Projects

 52. PROJECT:Greybull Raw Water
LEVEL:II
SPONSOR:Town of Greybull, Incorporated Municipality
LOCATION:Big Horn
PROGRAM:New Development
  
EXISTING LEGISLATION:
Purpose Chapter Session Account Appropriation Due Date
Level II 7 2002 I $50,000 2004

PROJECT INFORMATION:
The Town of Greybull would like a study to determine the feasibility and cost of putting in a raw water irrigation system for town parks, greenways and residential lawns. The Town of Greybull holds surface water rights on Shell Creek but does not currently use them because of high surface water treatment costs and increasing government standards. Greybull is currently operating at or near full capacity during summer peak months and during the summer of 2001 had to implement watering restrictions in the town to relieve the pressure on the water system. A raw water system would relieve demand on the town's potable system and allow for future growth and expansion of Greybull.

RECOMMENDED LEGISLATIVE ACTION:
No Legislative action is required at this time.
