a complete new plant control system and improvements to insure the
finished water would comply with the new EPA drinking water standards
which came into effect January 1, 2004. This new upgrade now allows our
water plant the capacity of 4.2 mgd with a peak demand of 2.2 mgd.
Therefore allowing an adequate reserve capacity available for increased
water demands. ($2,700,000)
