The Yarnell Water Improvement Association received more than $225,000 worth of pipe to rebuild the water supply system damaged this year during the Yarnell Hill Fire.
The donation to rebuild the water supply system for the town of Yarnell, is through We Build Arizona, a business coalition comprised of members of the construction and transportation industry. The entire donation of pipe to the Yarnell Water Improvement Association is through Pulice Construction. The donation includes four semi-truck loads of six and 8-inch pipe to reconstruct the water system that currently serves over 600 families.
“We are a long way from completing this project and hope that other members of the community help in this worthy cause,” said David Martin, Chairman of We Build Arizona. “Our members have volunteered to help in a number of ways, but completion of the project cannot be accomplished without the help of others. It is our hope that shining the light on this serious problem in Yarnell will garner additional momentum to achieve our goal of fixing the water system.”
Other donated services from We Build Arizona to restore the Yarnell water system will include: installation, and acquiring a team to manage and properly engineer the project. This is the first phase of the project that could take up to two years to complete.
