Oconee County Commissioners To Get An Update On Hard Labor Creek Regional Reservoir Project
Construction of the dam is nearing completion. The reservoir is expected to be full in 2017.
The Oconee County Board of Commissioners on Tuesday night is scheduled to get an update on the Hard Labor Creek Regional Reservoir from Project Manager Jimmy Parker.
The meeting will follow by one week the first concrete decision by the Management Board for the reservoir project to move forward with plans for design work on the water treatment plant.
Construction of the dam for the reservoir, in southeastern Walton County, is nearing completion, and the reservoir itself is expected to be at pool in 2017.
Oconee County and Walton County are partners in the project, and Parker is expected to update the full Oconee County Board of Commissioners on Tuesday on construction progress and future plans for the reservoir.
Among other items on the BOC agenda for Tuesday night is a revision of the Oconee County’s Water and Wastewater Systems Ordinance.
