A second effort for water system upgrades for the Port of The Dalles Marina is about to be installed. Port of The Dalles Executive Director Andrea Klaas says the system was originally upgraded and replaced two years ago, but it didn’t function as originally envisioned. Klaas says it has been redesigned and installation will begin this week. Klaas adds the system should be fairly maintenance free but will receive quarterly checks. She also says the Port general fund is paying the $45,000 cost for the project while also trying to recoup the funds spent on the first system.
