From: Terrebonne Domestic Water District, Board of Directors
To: Citizens of Terrebonne

As most of you are aware, the board of directors of the Terrebonne Domestic Water District (TDWD) had recently sent out a letter voicing the Board’s concerns about a sewer line that was set to be placed near TDWD’s water well. With that letter the Board also asked you to sign a petition stating your support of the Board’s position on this intrusion.

At this time we are pleased to inform you that the Terrebonne Sanitary District (TSD) and their engineering firm Parametrix have agreed to respect TDWD’s request to keep the proposed sewer outside the requested 100 foot buffer zone. The Board feels that by moving the proposed sewer line away from the District’s water source, the community’s wells will be protected into the future.

Most importantly, the Board of TDWD would like to thank the members of our community that signed the petition, wrote letters, and called local officials in support of your local water District. It is through your efforts that we were able to protect our water.
TDWD would also like to thank the Board of the TSD, Parametrix, Deschutes County officials and Deschutes County Commissioner Tony DeBone for meeting with TDWD to resolve this issue.

The Board of Directors of the Terrebonne Domestic Water District’s number one goal is to protect the District’s water source. Without clean, clear, untreated water we cannot serve the good people of Terrebonne as they deserve. Thank you for your support.

If you have any questions concerning this matter feel free to call the water district or visit the District’s website and send us your questions.

Sincerely: Eric Fisher – Board President
Kevin Byrne – Treasurer
Jim Wilhelm – Secretary
Velda Aldous – Board Member
Matt Banton – Board Member
Dan Bruce – General Manager
