PIERRE — It could be a little while longer before treated Missouri River water is flowing from your tap. Mayor Steve Harding says the hope to have new water by the first week in October doesn’t look possible now…
One of the biggest problems the city has faced in bringing the treatment plant online is getting employees ready to operate the building…
The contracted completion date for the plant is the end of October so the project is still on track for on-time operation….
The City of Pierre will announce when the plant begins operations. It could take up to 45 to 60 days to mix the river water in while shutting off the current wells supplying water.
