This project is included in the second funding package for the Gillette Regional Water Supply Project and provides a connection to the Stone Gate Estates Improvement and Service District (ISD). The Stone Gate Estates ISD connection is accomplished by a new transmission line connected to the Red Hills transmission line that runs along Stone Crest Drive to the Stone Gate tank site.  A new control building was placed adjacent to their tank and provides the necessary appurtenances to provide this service.

This project also reconfigured the Red Hills transmission line to be supplied by the Gillette West Pump Station that was installed in 2016, resulting in the abandonment of the aging Red Hills Pump Station.  A new control building was placed adjacent to the Red Hills tank and provides necessary pressure control for the Red Hills connection and will provide connection points for two future regional connections.

The original contract amount for this project was $704,610.35. There were three change orders for a net decreased cost to the project of $45,580.27 (6.5% decrease).  Below is a summary of these change orders:

Sixty seven percent of the cost of this project was eligible for reimbursement under the grant with the Wyoming Water Development Commission up to the shut off valve downstream of the control building. The remaining infrastructure downstream of the control valve was not eligible for reimbursement, but was eligible to be paid for by CAP Tax.
