Via Round Mountain Water and Sanitation
District (RMWSD)

Dave Schneider, district manager for Round Mountain Water and Sanitation District, sent the plans for the wastewater treatment plant for review this week. The project will be completed in two phases. See phase 1 estimates. See phase 2 estimates.
Dave says RMWSD now has “received permission from CDPHE to install a Pilot project using this new technology. The conceptual design will be sent to CDPHE for their review. A $3 million price tag is much more reasonable that $14.1 million!”

“Financially, the district has requested a change of project scope on our existing DOLA grant and has sent grant applications to Hickenlooper’s and Bennett’s offices for CDS funding.”
“The District is beginning to receive statewide attention in our attempts to find a treatment solution for our wastewater challenges. I have received phone calls from other rural districts struggling with similar issues and have project support from CDPHE and the Colorado Rural Water Association. The State is using us as a testing site as part of the plan to provide an affordable and effective solution, not only for our District, but for the hundreds of other rural districts within the state of Colorado.”
