CLARKSBURG -- The Salem-Sun Valley water project is one step closer to completion.

The project is one that has been in the works in some form for nearly 10 years.

The Harrison County Commission was told at their meeting this morning that the project will be out to bid by October 1. The project will cost nearly $8 million, coming from both loans and grants.

The project includes 35 miles of water lines from Clarksburg to Sun Valley. More than 400 new customers will be added in the Sun Valley-Lake Floyd area, one of those customers is the entire town of Salem, which already has more than 900 customers. County officials say construction should begin in early spring and the entire project will take about a year to complete. The county commissioners say the project could mean major development for the area.

they should take the time to look at the areas they are passing by on the way to salem because most of us on cherry camp cant even drink our water because of the iron and a lot of us have little kids that were afraid to even put them in the water for a bath and as far as we are being told we are not even in consideration to try to get drinkable water
