Plans Near Completion for Athens New Well Field
Athens moves toward a 10 well water field across the river from the current W State Street site to add 4.5 million gallons a day. Dwight Robinson says 10 wells will range 300 to 450 gpm with 10,000 to 12,000 feet of pipe to tie into the existing system. The project, costing about 357000 dollars, will be bid in mid May with two contracts for drilling and piping.
