The object was to eliminate extraneous discharges as much as possible so as to provide and maintain a high water quality for the residents of the area and especially those around the many recreational lakes. Before the project was started, financing was required; thus the creation of a Special Purpose District by the General Assembly and taxation of the residents of the area to be served. |
