TUD To Begin MT. Provo Water Transmission Project
Sonora, CA – Tuolumne Utilities District (TUD) crews will begin work on Phase 1 of the $2.8 million Mt. Provo Transmission and Intertie Project.

Provo Road in the Ponderosa Hills area of Tuolumne County. The hours of operation will be from 7 a.m. to 5 p.m. Monday through Friday.
This project is funded by a grant from the Department of Water Resources and “will serve as one of the main arteries of the district’s water transmission system from the future Sierra Pines Regional Water Treatment Facility located in Twain Harte, according to TUD.
