From The Fort Morgan Times (Dan Barker):

After the state issues its annual bonds, the loan can be issued, he said. That means the expansion to the west of the existing wastewater plant and updates could begin as soon as the end of October and probably no later than mid-November, he said.

Much of the equipment in the existing facility is worn and corroded, said Barbara Gorrell, planning administrator for the county. The original sewage treatment plant was built in 1956, and the current facility used some of the original equipment when it was built in 1965, Colerick said. It`s getting exciting to anticipate seeing the new expansion and equipment built, he said, because some aspects of the plan have been going on for 13 years.
