Hot Sulphur Springs Drinking Water Recovery Project

The Town of Hot Sulphur Springs has upgraded its drinking water infrastructure with "Stimulus" funds under the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act (ARRA) via the Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment (CDPHE).

This project was completed on time and in budget and received several awards!

The following items were engineered and built between June 2009 & December 2010:

Replacement of the water intake system and related river restoration work.
Addition of a new, state-of-the-art membrane water filter. The existing water filter was re-fitted to become a pre-filter.
Replacement of the clear well at the water treatment plant.
Addition of a second water tank next to the existing tank on West Roosevelt.
