Le Ax Growth Hit By Water Supply Limits
Le-Ax Growth Hurt By Lack of Supply. District President Dick Shaw says rapid expansion has pushed usage to about 11 million gallons monthly, near the safe limit from Lake Snowden, the system's sole source. Expansion plans may wait for a new water source such as a Nelsonville well field. The system serves about 2,000 customers over 500 miles of lines in south and west Athens County, with capacity constraints affecting a Route 56 school and a proposed Albany sewage plant.
