Town plugs water leaks
More users would help, Danbury says
DANBURY (Winston-Salem Journal) - The price tag for an overhaul of the 27-year-old, leaky water system in Danbury is approaching $1 million, about $350,000 more than was projected last year, town officials said this week.
Town officials said in December that the water system was losing more than half of the water that the system’s two wells were pumping. Officials then started making plans to fix the system.
Since then the town has fixed a major leak, and has reduced water usage by 20,000 gallons a day, said Tony Sprinkle, who operates the water system. The wells are now pumping about 1.3 million gallons of water each month, Sprinkle said.
