Town of Fletcher issued the following announcement on Aug. 28.
Water service in the Fletcher area will be improved by creating a new pressure zone with a new ground storage tank at a higher elevation and a water booster station to feed the new ground storage tank. This project is referred to as the Northside Water System Improvements Project. A new ground storage tank will be constructed adjacent to the existing ground storage tank, but with a new overflow elevation of 2,375 ft. (~70-ft. higher than existing tank) with a storage capacity of 1.0 million gallons (MG), like the existing tank. The ground storage tank will be served by a water booster station, which will be constructed south of the US 25 and Howard Gap Road intersection on Woodhill Dr. The 1,750-gpm (gallons per minute) water booster station will fill the tank during off-peak hours and will provide additional flow during peak demands. The construction of the proposed water booster station will include approximately 1,500 linear feet of 12-inch water main along Woodhill Dr. to serve as suction and discharge piping between the water booster station and the existing 16-inch water main on US 25. This project is currently scheduled to be completed in May 2021.
