Abstract:

The Tehaleh project is vast.  It is the largest Master Planned Community conceived for the Puget Sound Basin to date.  Infrastructure improvements include a sewer tunnel under the Carbon River and expansion/upgrade of the City of Orting Sewage Treatment Plant as well as new taps to the City of Tacoma Water pipeline from the Howard Hansen Dam.  While still in the early stages of development, years of entitlement work and negotiations with Pierce County, the Cities of Orting and Tacoma and the Utilities are paving the way for the ultimate success of the project.
