Dear Ms. Duncan, Chairman Hopkins and Representative Keane,
My name is Vickie Zeier, and I am the Chief Administrative Officer for Missoula County. On behalf of the Missoula Board of County Commissioners, I have attached a formal letter of support regarding HB 6, specifically addressing the Seeley Lake sewer project. I would like to thank the bill sponsor, Representative Keane, for carrying this bill, and we would like to request that the attached letter be distributed to the remaining committee members on the Long Range Planning Subcommittee and be made part of the public record.
Please do not hesitate to contact me if you have any questions, concerns or follow-up. I appreciate your willingness to share the attached and thank you for your time and consideration of HB 6.
Missoula County supports HB 6, Renewable Resource Grants, on the House floor this afternoon. This bill would provide $125,000 to fund Phase 2 of the Seeley Lake sewer. The Seeley Lake community has needed a sewer system for a number of years, as studies going back decades indicate elevated nitrate and chloride levels in the community’s groundwater due to the high density of septic systems. Increased nutrient levels have also impacted the water quality of the lake, as well as the fish, aquatic insects, birds and plants that call it home. This will inevitably degrade the recreational value of the lake, which in turn will impact the local economy. The funding allocated in this bill would go a long way toward finally making the Seeley Lake sewer a reality.
