Previous Next

The Town of Labolt sought improvements to their wastewater collection and treatment system.  The system was analyzed for deficiencies and recommendations were made to maintain the system capabilities by lowering cleanout caps in the streets, protecting the stabilization ponds against further erosion, and restoring control structures at the stabilization pond site. The wastewater treatment facility (WWTF) was physically deteriorating from years of erosion to unprotected banks. The aging structures included a seized control valve on the outfall line and heaving of concrete level indicators and control piping. This combination of deficiencies led to an unreliable operation and treatment. A facility plan was necessary to analyze the wastewater collection and treatment system. The Town of LaBolt is a relatively small community of less than 60 residents with limited resources. Banner worked with LaBolt and their community planning and economic development association, 1st District Association of Local Governments, and East Dakota Water Development District to develop a funding package that allowed Labolt the opportunity to make the necessary improvements.
