— The Piedmont Triad Regional Water Authority approved a budget Tuesday afternoon of $7.4 million for next year, the first year it expects to produce and sell drinking water for the region.

The budget includes an estimated $3.7 million in water sales primarily to Greensboro from the authority’s new water plant on Randleman Regional Reservoir.

Executive Director John Kime told board members the new budget assumes a full year of sales, but that won’t actually occur because finishing touches are still being put on the authority’s new water plant.

Kime said the authority might begin producing drinking water toward the end of August, after state regulators have given the water plant final operating approval. The new budget takes effect July 1.
