Having fallen into a state of disrepair and suffering
from pollution from a nearby waste treatment system, the
Weldon Springs Observation Area was not the inviting
attraction it had been for many years.
BWC developed a
plan for eliminating the contamination of the natural
spring and restoring the observation area for people of
all ages. Improvements
included exposed aggregate walkways, timber bridge, rustic
benches and refurbished spring boxes along the new
spillways and channels. |

Electrical service for the park office and maintenance
building was evaluated and upgraded.
Also
included were the design of sanitary sewers and two aerobic
wastewater treatment systems:
one 500 GPD for the ranger residence and one 750 GPD for
the maintenance shop.

A
second project at Weldon Springs involved the design of
accessible facilities to comply with the Americans with
Disabilities Act.
Improvements included sidewalks, campsites, fishing
piers, vault toilets, rest rooms, water hydrants, playground
equipment and ramps.
