GENERAL <br /> <br />The Town of Hudson is located in Held County, Colorado, approximately <br />25 miles northeast of Denver along Interstate Highway 765. The <br />Chicago, Burlington and Quincy Railroad passes through the Town. <br />The location and transportation facilities make the community a <br />desirable location for new residential and industrial growth to <br />occur. <br /> <br />Hudson is in serious need of improvements to its domestic water <br />system. The major components of the water system such as the treated <br />water storage, distribution system, treatment and raw water supply <br />system are inadequate and in need of improvements to meet existing <br />and future requirements. A serious deficiency of the system is the <br />poor quality of water supply from the existing wells serving the <br />Town. The limitations of the water system have caused water service <br />problems for the users in the Town and have restricted growth of <br />the community. <br /> <br />This report discusses the needs of the Town's water system and pro- <br />poses improvements to upgrade the system. <br /> <br />B.
