More water supply details coming from Sierra Nevada for their Mills River, NC property. This from BlueridgeNow:
While state and local officials wrestle over the fate of the Asheville Water System, Sierra Nevada Brewing Co. has learned it can supply most of the water the brewery will need from a well on its property in Mills River.
After the announcement, Sierra Nevada decided to drill for water at Ferncliff Industrial Park, where the company has purchased 100 of the park’s available 262 acres for development. On the second attempt, officials tapped into a dream water source.
According to Stan Cooper, who will co-manage the Mills River plant, the well will generate about 160 gallons of water per minute, which is roughly 50 gallons a minute more than Sierra Nevada needs for the brewing process.
