A new addition to the Roanoke Rapids filter plant will boost capacity by 50 percent. Construction will begin soon, adding a new leasing and filter section to the two existing ones. The expansion will provide more filtered water for residents and industry and prevent future shortages. A settlement between the Sanitary District and Rosemary Mfg. Co. assigns the plant expansion cost to Rosemary and sets a one dollar per year rental for use of the plant.
