Baker County
Request: $52,156
We are a small city nestled into the foothills of the Wallowa Whitman National Forest, located approximately 54 miles from Baker City, OR and 18 Miles from the Idaho State border along Hells Canyon and the Snake River. Halfway and the surrounding Pine Valley area is primarily a ranch community that thrives off our supportive and welcoming nature. With approximately 350 residents, our rural city struggles to find funding for emergency projects. We are seeking funding for repair and replacement of deteriorating parts at the Chlorine Mixing Station, located in the Lagoon Vault at 331 East Record Street, Halfway, Oregon. Failure of the Chlorine mixing station will result in loss of DEQ compliance and impact sewer services to the entire City of Halfway.
