State-of-the-art utility operations are available
at Port of Morrow and they cost less than at many
other industrial sites:
Water
Clean, clear water from a series of deep wells
is available in the Boardman Industrial Park.
A system of five Port-owned wells, augmented
by
a link with the City of Boardman’s municipal
system provides ample unused capacity for food
processing, as well as other industrial uses
requiring
large water supplies.
Wastewater
The Port maintains over 5,000 acres of farm land
near the Boardman Industrial Park for the disposal
of food processing wastewater. This effluent water
is also a great fertilizer for the surrounding
farmland. An efficient, effective and economical
method of disposal, the Port’s effluent
system will be expanded by 100% in the near future.
Electricity
Local electric cooperatives provide some of the
most economical power in the country. Umatilla
Electric Cooperative Association serves both the
Boardman and Airport Industrial Parks, while the
Columbia Basin Electric Cooperative serves the
South Morrow Industrial Park.
Natural Gas & Process
Steam
Plans for a natural gas-fired co-generation plant
in the Food Processing Park will allow for delivery
of process steam at an economical rate.
Fiber optic
No matter what your communication needs, the Port
is equipped for both voice and data transmission.
All three parks have state-of-the-art fiber optics,
supplying businesses with highly reliable service.
