We received a Community Renewable Energy Planning Grant from the Oregon Department of Energy.
We are taking this opportunity to explore how we could make use of solar power to reduce our annual costs and to free up power for other users.
Valve Bolts

We are beginning work with a local contractor to replace corroded valve bolts. We will excavate valve clusters one at a time. This means, for the most part, we will be able to make repairs without turning off water service!
Waterline Replacement

Waterline Replacement
Through State and Federal Programs, we received funding to upgrade waterlines!
We will focus on replacing 8 sections to reduce "dead-end" lines (decreasing the chance of service interruptions) and to increase seismic resiliency. Some water mains will be upsized to provide increased fire flow.
As of the Summer of 2023, this project is still in the initial planning phase.
