Water bond aims to tap Potomac for Ballenger Creek
Frederick County commissioners vote on a 10.3 million bond to finance adding river water from the Potomac to the Ballenger Creek system. The plan, led by Public Works director Lawrence W. Johnson Jr., would expand the New Design plant to treat river water, extending roughly five miles of lines to connect to Tamko Asphalt near Lime Kiln. The goal is safer drinking water, avoiding groundwater contamination from wells, and serving about 20 000 future residents while reducing toxins entering aquifers through sinkholes and stormwater runoff from highways and farms.
