Yadkin Regional Water Supply Project – Raw Water Infrastructure (Lessons Learned)

The Raw Water Infrastructure Project is part of Union County’s Yadkin River Water Supply Project, which has been developed to ensure a long-term, sustainable water supply to its current and projected future customers in the Yadkin River Basin Service Area in North Carolina.

Key features of the project include a new raw water intake in Lake Tillery, a 45 million gallon per day (MGD) pump station with five vertical turbine pumps, and 29 miles of 42-inch and 54-inch mortar-lined steel raw water pipeline. This new infrastructure will help the raw water travel to the site of Union County’s new water treatment plant to then be distributed to residents in the area.
