Design and construction of the new WWSS is underway, and includes a modified water intake in Wilsonville, a state-of-the-art filtration facility east of Sherwood, water supply tanks in Beaverton, and more than 30 miles of pipeline from Wilsonville to Hillsboro. Of the more than 20 projects making up the WWSS, six have been completed.
About 900 feet of this pipeline will be constructed beneath the eastern edge of Orenco Woods Nature Park (OWNP). The need to route the pipeline through the park was anticipated during park development in 2015.
