The Board of Directors of the Lewis & Clark Regional Water System recently awarded an $8.4 Million contract for the Sibley service line to Metro Construction of Tea, SD. The service line includes 17 miles of 12-inch diameter PVC pipe. Substantial completion deadline is July 2025.
Lewis & Clark Executive Director Troy Larson says it has been a long time coming, but the final pipeline project for the 44.19 million gallons a day Base System is nearing an end. There are still two more projects to award to complete the Base System, but those involve the third phase of the water treatment plant and some backup generators. Larson says he’s looking forward to a “golden spike” celebration when the last section of pipe is installed.
