About Us

 We hope the following information will be informative and helpful to you.  The Sanitary District is a Non-Profit Service District.  We are regulated by ORS 450 and State DEQ Regulations.  We are monitored by a local Board of Directors.

There are three types of systems working within the sewer system.  Depending on where you live, you are connected by one of the following: pressure system, vacuum system, or gravity system.  As part of the new system, we have acquired 480 acres from the Forest Service.  We put in 3 lagoons which range in size from .9 to 13.5 acres, plus 2-50 acre irrigation fields that are planted with orchard grass.  To accomplish all of this, the District received $4.7 million in Federal Loans and approximately $3.5 million in Grants.  The loan is to be paid back in 30 years.
