About this file

This document is a site photo collection for the Rehabilitate Polebridge Water System project, scheduled for 2024 to 2025. The project is located at the Polebridge Ranger Station (714 Glacier Drive, Polebridge, MT 59928) within Glacier National Park and encompasses four primary work areas: the Infiltration Gallery Area, Water Tank Area, Housing Area, and Maintenance Area.

The Infiltration Gallery Area contains an existing infiltration gallery system (concentric corrugated metal pipe filled with concrete with cast iron lids), a precast concrete valve vault with cast iron lid, solar array, electrical breaker, and vent pipe. A new infiltration gallery is planned for this area. Geotechnical testing was conducted in July 2025 to evaluate soil conditions. The Water Tank Area features a 30'-5" length by 7'-11" diameter plastic tank with multiple access ports (4" PVC and 26" steel), a valve, and vent pipe, with vegetation clearing underway along Inside North Fork Road and the water main route. The Housing Area includes five buildings (B#97 Ranger Residence, B#1451 Strissel Cabin, B#1454 Laundry and Shower, B#1576 Dorm, and B#1865 School to Park Cabin) requiring water service connections and fiber optic installations, along with a sewer lift station and related infrastructure. The Maintenance Area contains operational buildings (B#1448 Fire Cache/Ranger Storage with chlorination room, B#1447 Equipment Cache, B#1450 Hazardous Material Storage, B#353 Ranger Office, B#98 Cabin, and B#1576 Radio Shed) with fire hydrants, water service connections, and chlorination equipment. Additional site features include the Ranger Station Loop (B#1455), staging areas at Bowman Pit and Covey Meadow Trailhead, and a solar array with associated infrastructure.
