County Approves Easement For $312,000 Water Project Box Elder county officials have given the green light to use of county road rights-of-wa- y for water line easements to serve the new Riverside-Nort- h Garland Water company. The decision came Tuesday as county commissioners heard a detailed explanation of the project from Jay Macfarlane, president, and attorney Reed Hadfield. Macfarlane who hails from Riverside, said the new system will serve 115 families now relying mostly on shallow wells. He indicated the quality of water is not always good. Source of water for the new company is a well, located northwest of Plymouth, which produces a steady flow of 300 gallons per minute. The president said it is sufficient to serve six times the present population. Have Reservoirs Features of the $312,000 project will include a (estimated) 25,000-gallo- n reservoir near the well, a second reservoir west of Riverside with 125,000-gallo- n capacity and 23 miles of pipe line. Size of the line will vary from eight to with most of the main line six inches in diameter. Macfarlane said the service has been offered to all families who can't get Garland water west of the Malad river. They expect to call for bids next week with 60 days to be allowed for construction. The president said he hopes to see the project completed by. the end of the year. Farmers Home administration has approved a $118,000 loan and $153,500 grant with the community to raise an additional $40,000, primarily through a $350 connection fee. Macfarlane noted that they started out four years ago to get water only for fire fighting.
