CAUD's biggest challenge? Cleaner water for City, AC school kids 2015-03-23 - Jefferson Alley & Burkesville Street, Columbia, KY - Photo photo courtesy Connie Stotts, Stotts Construction. One of the immediate and major concerns to assure clean, potable water for the City of Columbia, KY, is replacement of ancient pipe like this. Already, $1.7 million of a $4,000,000 project has been spent, with some major improvements for areas where lines have been replaced. However, because of distribution routes, even the areas in the Downtown Project which have been upgraded continue to be affected by pipes like these which have not been replaced. Even water which flows to the Adair County School District is affected by pipes like these. Some suggest the situation in a paradigm to heart surgery: If the surgery includes a heart and arterial replacement, but leaves a septic, diseased, and occluded artery in the system, the patient is still sick.
