Oregon Water Utilities is making critical investments to upgrade the local water and wastewater systems. Last year, about $4 million was invested, and this year, approximately $1.6 million of investment continues for reliable service.
While much of the country’s water and wastewater systems often go unnoticed, they deliver life-sustaining and public health support every single day. These systems are aging and need continuous investment to avoid crisis situations like we’ve seen in communities where investment needs are ignored. At Oregon Water Utilities, we work hard to upgrade our local systems so our customers can continue to trust the service we deliver now and in the future.
Our customers support these important investments by paying their bill. Investment projects include, among others, adding a new steel water tank in the Pinecrest water system for reliability. Wastewater system investments include constructing the Millican wastewater treatment plant to efficiently and reliability treat septage to protect the environment.
