The Dalles City Council has approved moving forward with expansion of the Lone Pine Well. The project originally planned for 2010, then was pushed back to 2019, and has been moved up again to take place now to help accommodate the Google facility being built in the Columbia Gorge Industrial Center. It will cost just over one million dollars, well under the originally estimated one-point-six million dollars. City Public Works Director Dave Anderson says they had been told by potential bidders the cost would turn out to be well under that estimate, in part due to changes in the original design done in 2010. Well capacity will go from the current 2,000 gallons a minute to 3,000 gallons every sixty seconds, and will help accommodate the Google facility being built in the Columbia Gorge Industrial Center. Stetler Supply of Salem was the lone bidder for the project.
