Water Transfer Provides Funding for Million Gallon Water Storage Tank
May 16, 2016
The Foresthill Public Utility District (FPUD) announced today the approval of a contract with Paso Robles Tank Company for construction of a new treated water storage tank.
The cost to construct the tank is $998,551. Located at the FPUD treatment plant on Foresthill Road, the one million gallon storage tank will replace three older tanks which are leaking and at the end of their useful life. The tank is critical for fire protection and drinking water storage for the Foresthill community.
“Funding for the project was made possible by a 2015 transfer of water from Sugar Pine Reservoir,” said Board President Helen Rogers West. “We wouldn’t be able to do this project without the money from that sale.”
