Conduction Line is currently in Phase 1, where CAD drawings are being revised and valve locations are chosen.
Distribution lines have been modeled in EPA net and have received feedback and will be revised per feedback received.
Pump, Electrical, and Chlorination System is currently being designed and purchased.
