Hillsboro's Future Water Supply

Title

Hillsboro's Future Water Supply

Description

Sepia-toned image mounted on heavy cardstock of a group of men in suits standing beside Sain Creek in the hills behind Cherry Grove. Hillsboro was dealing with an inadequate water supply in the city, and Sain Creek was part of the recommended solution. Eventually, Sain Creek would feed into Henry Hagg Lake, created when the Scoggins Dam was built in 1975.
