Active Projects

139.PROJECT:Wright Well and Pipeline
LEVEL:III
SPONSOR:Wright Water & Sewer District
LOCATION:Campbell County
PROGRAM:New Development
  
EXISTING LEGISLATION:
Purpose Chapter Session Account Appropriation Due Date
Level III 88 2002 I $600,000 2007

PROJECT DESCRIPTION:
Because of the influx of people in the region due to energy production and construction of two new power plants, Wright Water and Sewer District anticipates water demand in excess of the capacity of the current system. A man camp will be located in the district, which will house as many as 800 to 1,000 workers. The new well contemplated in this application will be necessary to meet the increased water demand. This application is for completion of the well, pump, controls, well house, and a pipeline connecting the well to the distribution system.

Completion is anticipated for a Fort Union well with a large diameter cased section in the top 1200 feet of the well and a smaller diameter cased section in the lower 1500 feet. This project includes funding for the design and construction of 5,700 feet of transmission pipeline and appurtenances.

RECOMMENDED LEGISLATIVE ACTION:
No legislative action required.
