Published November 15, 2008 12:17 am - Lowrey residents thankful for water
TAHLEQUAH — A partnership among the Cherokee Nation, Cherokee County, the Grandview Rural Water District and Northeastern Oklahoma Public Facilities Authority has supplied the Lowrey community with safe and plentiful drinking water. Cherokee Nation contributed more than $460,000 for the community’s new waterline and water tower. “Being on well water, there were a lot of issues that we dealt with as a school,” Scott Trower, Lowrey Elementary School superintendent said in a media release. “There have been times when we ran out of water and being a public school we were required to conduct a lot of tests on our water. This becomes expensive over time. The rural waterline has and will continue to be an asset to our school system.” The project included approximately five and a half miles of waterline, a booster pump station and a 150,000 thousand-gallon water tower that services the Lowrey area, including Lowrey Elementary School, Cherokee Nation Head Start and Lowrey Fire Department. For information about the Cherokee Nation’s waterline projects, call 453-5111.
