" ArlingtoiH-lone Heppner Sieve Anderson, city engi neer. Rave a progress report on the city water improve ment project al the Chamber of Commerce meeting Mon day. Andenton recalled thai the water project began In June, 1973. Al lhal time the project was held up awaiting the Corps of Engineers decision on the proposed Willow Creek Dam. because with the Corps participation in the project the city would have been able lo replace Ihree miles of existing 8-inch transmission main with 12 inch mains. On the basis of the Corps' participation in the projer! the City of Heppner passed a $450,000 water bond issue. After the bill passed the Senate and the House sub committees, the bill for Wil low Creek Project was vetoed by the president. Anderson's plans then had In be revised, "When the project is completed we will have 80 per cent of (he proposed line installed as we promised Ihe people, when we asked for their support of the liond issue." said Anderson. "The remaining 20 per cent is Ihe transmission line and we will have lo live with it until a grant comes through," Anderson has applied for two grants, the most recent to the Department of Housing and Urban Development, in an Attempt to complete the pro ject, with installation of the transmission line. The project started with Phase 1. which gave the city three wells that would func tion together, with the neces sary improvements lo Well 3. Phase 2 of Ihe project is the lying-in and installation of new water mains throughout Ihe city's system, along with the related work to Ihe county reservoir. Phase 3 deals primarily with construction of a new 2'n,0fm gallon reservoir be hind Heppner High School, which, when completed, will remove present restrictions lo I ill's Addition. "Other reservoirs we once considered abandoning will be put into use. with the reservoir behind the cemetery getting painted for Ihe firs! time since it was constructed. and Reservoir 2 will he repaired lo prevent it from leaking." he said. The proposed plans were to build a new one million-gallon reservoir giving Heppner lliuh School 3.000 gallons of water for a four-hour period. However, with Ihe system tied in as presently designed, the High School will be able to drain nil water from the reservoirs for their fire pro tection needs. "When the water system Is conipleled.il w ill be on of the best systems in Eastern Oregon.' said Anderson. Phase 2 should be completed by June I. However, the contractor is running behind schedule. The contract for Phase 3 will be aw arded in Ihe near future with a completion Hate tentatively set for Sept. 1. The contractor for Phase 2 has plans lo resurface and pave all existing roadways that were paved prior lo his const met ion al the same time. He has lo restore Ihe roads to their present condition prior to any excavations. Ten per cent of funds will be withheld until "nil required work Is complet ed. Shaking of Ihe contract for Ph.'ise 3. Anderson said Ihe city has had a lot of response from contractors by letting the jobs during Ihe winter months rather than during summer months. Asked from the audience hat he considered to be the limit of growth of the city if J, Lrl Pat Davis General Clerk La Grande V Joyce Heller Sieno-Clerk Walla Walla IT- a U i.t'fc'.ji'ii. Chester W.

Montgomery Agent Pendleton Jim Carter Data Field Supervisor Hinkle "I I' (5 J PL f Belle Killinger Relief Clerk Wallula We're a great big rollin' railroad movin' fast and runnin' strong. We have to be. Because each and every day we deliver very necessary goods to you, the people of the Pacific Northwest. Things like autos, appli ances, furniture and foods. Things that can't wait. And then we see that your paper, lumber, alumi num and fruit and frozen foods get delivered to people in other parts of the country. We're the Union Pacific, and if you've been looking at us simply as a railroad train that hauls grain, we suggest you look again. And look deeper. You'll see a vital form of transportation at work for you delivering all types of goods for all types of needs. It's a big order to fill. tftfe ami Ifo&Dnfe it th Union Pacific railroad paopl the transmission line Is not installed. Anderson explained Ihe town could support 2.500 and possibly 2.900 people at this time. But with the limited flow coming into town during Ihe summer, and should a major breakdown occur, -water would have to be restricted to Ihe present users. The present system could supply 2.100 people, and if a well goes out there would not be any restrictions on water usatje. When completed Ihe system could handle all of Ihe predicted growth for Ihe next in years, he said. Anderson also reported on Ihe solid waste disposal site for Ihe Heppner. Lexington and Ihe lone area. "I hope to have all of the easements and lo have completed the survey work in Ihe next three to four months, referring to the Black Horse Canyon site, and when this is completed to apply for a permit lo develop Ihe site." "Once the permit is grant ed, a site development plan will he offered, and with its approval we plan to start using Ihe site as soon as possible." "I also plan to instruct the personnel in the use of Ihe equipment for Ihe disposal site." said Anderson, "for it is no longer a matter of just dumping garbage into a hole and covering it up. Excava tions and earth fill must be planned in advance as Ihe proposed new development w ill only be about 10 per cent of Ihe original site." Anderson was asked whey he proposed getting another insiector for the reservoir and Phase 3 of the water project. He replied that an inspector for Ihe reservoir must be familiar with mechanical plans, must have a know ledge of pump stations and auto malic valves and electronic controls. "It is easy to inspect an ordinary pipeline, but Phase 3 will be a complicated job. requiring a trained in spector." Slate Representative Jack Sumner will be the guest speaker at the Chamber of Commerce Monday.
