Municipal Water & Sewer
About Us
Among the customers of those districts are several coal companies. In 2009, the city ran up against a development limit: The plant could meet existing demand but no more, and no new businesses or coal mines were allowed. So the city worked with rural development agencies to get funding and authorization to expand the plant to a design capacity of 7 mgd with an expected average of 5 mgd. As that was happening, the federal government began encouraging power plants to abandon coal and switch to natural gas. That greatly reduced demand for water from the water districts, which began aggressively following water-loss reduction programs. All this plus a slight rate increase dropped demand to about 3 mgd, where it is today. Unused capacity led to a problem: Violation of the limits on disinfection byproducts because water was sitting too long in the system
