Summary
Presenters described options for Kemmerer Industrial District water and sewer systems and showed plans for a TriSight project including rail access, a proposed 10-acre refinery (10,000 barrels/day) and a prospective data center; engineers presented three water-system options and a sewer capacity evaluation.
At the July 18 meeting, representatives from CRS Engineers, TriSight and Evaunt briefed the Board of Lincoln County Commissioners on infrastructure and development plans for the Kemmerer Industrial District.
Josh Prettyman of CRS Engineers presented a Water System Evaluation for the Kemmerer Industrial District and outlined three different options for the system. He also summarized a sewer-collection system capacity evaluation for the Kemmerer–Diamondville Joint Powers Board, noting monitored sewer flow at six locations, infiltration and inflow findings, manhole conditions, and overall sewer capacity concerns.
Paul Kruger of TriSight presented a map of a proposed TriSight project, describing plans to serve the area by rail and stating his intention to present the plan to Union Pacific Railroad for feedback. Ed Ekstrom of TriSight presented diagrams for a proposed refinery system on a roughly 10-acre site that the presentation said could produce about 10,000 barrels per day, and discussed plans for a proposed data center. Brad Barham of Evaunt updated commissioners on related project steps, including permit revisions and construction preparations.
Commissioners were briefed on next steps including outreach to rail partners, further engineering work on water and sewer capacities, and permit revisions. The presentations were described as informational updates; no formal land-use approvals or binding commitments were recorded in the minutes.
The Board recorded these presentations and directed follow-up as needed for engineering and permitting steps.
