We’ve taken significant strides with the Bull Run Treatment Projects in Fiscal Year 2020-2021.

A look forward to economic benefits of a more resilient water system
Constructing a more resilient water system will deliver tangible benefits for our local economy. ECONorthwest estimates in the Bull Run Treatment Projects Economic Contributions and Benefits Report that these projects will create 4,600 jobs and more than $1.59 billion in total economic contribution to the Portland tri-county area.
These are just a couple examples of the momentum we’re making to improve resilience of our Bull Run water system and prepare for challenges ahead. Learn more about how the Bull Run Treatment Projects support our future.
