KALAHARI WATER PARK CHANGES COURSE ON WATER SUPPLY

After taking a second look at their plans to remove 500,000 gallons per day of water from the headwaters of Swiftwater Creek and sending that water to the bottom of the watershed for treatment, developers of the Kalahari Water Park decided to get their water from the Brodhead Creek by way of the water line on Rt 611.

 

It means a lot of pipes and pumps, but is a better solution that drying up the Swiftwater headwaters - which would have happened in dry years. In those times, there simply is not enough water in the headwaters to meet Kalahari's needs.

Read about BWA's involvement   in this decision.
