Details: | SUMMARY: SRF Assistance DETAILS: The Timber Water Association owns and operates a surface water system, which supplies approximately 180 people through 65 connections. The water source for the system is the Nehalem River. Water is treated by an aging Microfloc package water treatment plant. The plant has failing parts that are difficult to replace. In addition, during periods of turbidity over 5 NTU, the plant is not capable of treating water to meet the requirements of the SWTR. George Herr contacted HBH to provide general advice for the funding of a new water treatment plant. In 2007, HBH assisted the system with the completion of a letter of interest for the SDWRLF-- I reviewed replacement options for the water treatment plant, including membrane technology and explained funding options available to the system. ACTION NEEDED: Provide further funding assistance as requested |
