At its meeting Tuesday, the board of directors of the Rivanna Water & Sewer Authority approved funding for a portion of a water pipeline — going from the South Fork Rivanna Reservoir to the Ragged Mountain Reservoir — that will traverse the eastern side of the Birdwood Golf Course property while the course undergoes construction. The property is owned by the University of Virginia Foundation. According to RWSA staff, approximately 6,000 feet of the water pipeline will be buried alongside the course.
