B.C. Flooding: New water line being built as Canadian Forces arrive in Princeton

The town’s water system is down to one line across the Tulameen River, and pressure for the system is depending on two fire hoses. A new water line is currently being constructed, drilling underneath the Tulameen River. “The challenge is, mostly, there’s a cobble situation, so it’s more challenging than most drilling,” said Greg Truman, an Ironman Directional Drilling project manager. Ironman Directional Drilling has been contracted to construct the new water line. Truman said it’s rewarding work for a community that needs help.
