 A growing business in the Ione area is getting some water relief from Amador County.
The Board of Supervisors approved a letter of intent for a lease of their Carbondale business park
well for the US Tile Plant.
The lease also opts the county out of the water business says
General Services Administration Director Jon Hopkins. The lease proposal would grant US Tile a 34 year lease
on the well, and its water, estimated to be about 25 gallons per minute
by Hopkins. The
lease also allows US Tile to extend a pipeline to their plant from the well and
use that pipeline, at their own expense and maintenance, thru the term of the
lease. The company was also required to build two ponds for fire suppression
for a total of about 70,000 gallons of water in the event of a wildland or
plant fire.
