Amador County – Members of the Amador Water Agency board of directors and the Plymouth City Council are expected to attend an official groundbreaking ceremony Wednesday to dedicate the Plymouth water pipeline project. The ceremony is set for 10 a.m. Wednesday, and will included comments form AWA board President Terence W. Moore, who represents District 5. AWA last week announced the ceremony, which will be held at a Montevina vineyard on Fiddletown/Shenandoah Road, east of Plymouth, below the hilltop where the city of Plymouth’s water storage tank is located. The groundbreaking will included “distinguished guests.” Work of the $10 Million Dollar joint project between the AWA and the city of Plymouth project began last month, but weather postponed the groundbreaking. The project will link the city of Plymouth’s water storage tank with the Tanner Water Treatment Plant on Ridge Road in Sutter Hill. The 6-segment pipeline will use and refurbish existing water lines between Sutter Creek, Amador City and Drytown, and will install new lines on the route, to deliver potable water to Plymouth. The project will help lift a 3-decade-long building moratorium in the city, and has ushered in a wave of commercial and housing developments proposed in and around city limits, with more than 1,000 equivalent dwelling units, all told. The groundbreaking is expected to last an hour. Story by Jim Reece This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it.
