Nyssa Treatment Plant
Next Tuesday the registered voters who live in the City
of Nyssa will vote on the proposed expansion of the city sewage
treatment plant.
Approval of the project will give Nyssa a
secondary plant meeting of all of the requirements of the
State of Oregon and Federal Government.
In these days when stream polution Is of such concern to
all states and communities, it certainly puts the burden on
all of us to be sure that we are not adding our wastes to one
of our greatest resorces, the Snake River.
Industry, for years one of the worst offenders in stream
pollution, is starting to recognize its responsibility. Our
Amalgamated factory installed settling ponds to filter out
the wastes from their operation.
Wednesday the Ore-Ida
factory at Ontario put into operation a new $500,000 treatment
plant to control their industrial waste.
All up and down the Snake River cities and industry are meeting
this responsibility, and it is good that our city council is pro­
viding a plan to help us meet ours.
City Manager Fred Koch says that the government will pay
between $70,000 and $100,000 of the cost of this improvement.
This is a valid federal expenditure, as stream pollution ex­
tends past city boundries and state lines.
Koch did the
engineering and design on the plant expansion, and this is a
savings to the city residents.
All in all it seems to be an
economical operation, and estimates place the repayment
cost per taxing unit at only about $1.00 for each $1,000valuation
per year.
Paying for waste disposal has never been real popular.
.Nevertheless, our poeple recognize the necessity of insuring
that our rivers and streams stay clean and useful. Federal
and state agencies do have the authority to demand that wastes
discharged into streams are of a certain standard, and ap­
proval of the bond issue will allow the Nyssa treatment plant
to meet those standards.
Let’s get out and vote next Tuesday. We think it will be
to the best interest of our community if we vote to support
this necessary improvement.
