Hurt & Proffitt has been selected by the Town of Troutville Town Council to prepare the Preliminary Engineering Report to cover the water system leak problem the Town is experiencing. Hurt & Proffitt was also chosen to prepare the plans and specifications for the water system improvements that will be recommended in the Preliminary Engineering Report. The PER will be prepared to the standards of the Virginia Department of Health and the USDA – Rural Development. The original water system for the Town appears to be the source of the problem where over 30,000 feet of various plastic pipe sizes have been laid.
