PROJECT INFORMATION:
The water supply system for the community of Lance Creek was constructed
by an oil company in 1946. There are 11 miles of lines providing water
for agricultural, industrial, commercial and domestic uses through a
total of 25 taps. There are leaks in the transmission lines. The 1997
Level III appropriation is to finance backflow prevention devices on
service lines, rehabilitate well pumps and controls, and provide
disinfection equipment. The 1998 appropriation is to finance further
improvements to the district, such as sliplining or replacing transmission
lines, rehabilitating or replacing storage facilities, and related
improvements as needed. RUS will finance the portion of the project not
financed by WWDC. Construction is anticipated to begin and be completed
in 1999.
RECOMMENDED LEGISLATIVE ACTION:
No legislative action is recommended.
