Necessity Is The Mother Of "Invention" -- Small Town Of Arnegard, ND, Will Outsource Its Waste Disposal

The Bismarck Tribune is reporting:
This small city out on U.S. Highway 85, halfway between Watford City and Alexander, is about to go where no town in North Dakota has gone before.
It is set to become the first municipality in the state to send its raw sewage to a private company for treatment and disposal.
Under the agreement — tentatively approved at a special meeting Wednesday night — a company called Arnegard Holdings will build lifts and pipelines to transport the small town’s sewage wastewater to the company’s man camp a mile south of town. It will be mixed and treated with the 100-unit man camp waste and waste from other facilities.
Interesting, to say the least.  Something tells me this is a huge win-win for both parties. Good for them.

For newbies: Arnegard is a small town between two of the metropolitan centers in northern McKenzie County: Watford City and Alexander. Watford City may have the best little bank-restaurant in the United States, and Alexander may have the best Chicago hot dogs.
