WestWater Engineering recently assisted the District with planning, funding, design, permitting, and construction administration of a new 160,000 gallon above ground welded steel water storage tank.

The new tank site is located approximately at an elevation 200-feet above the plant, requiring a booster pump and control system that includes radio telemetry to report tank water levels.

The tank is configured for limited visual impact and has a BLM approved color paint system. Construction required multiple permits and approvals from environmental agencies and the Colorado Department of Transportation.
