$3.7 Million Awarded for Sewer, Water Projects in Ohio
1/17/2018
The Ohio EPA has awarded approximately $3.7 million in low-interest loans to improve sewer and water systems across the state.
The projects receiving funding include:
- $2.37 million to the City of Marion to reduce combined sewer overflows and improve water quality in the Little Scioto River. The project will include a 5-million-gallon influent flow equalization basin and pump station, and enhanced primary treatment for 51 million gallons a day during peak storm water flows.
- $1.34 million to Gallia County to improve drinking water service in the Kerr Booster Service Area by replacing an undersized booster station with a new 500-gallons-per-minute pump station and new transmission main.
Created in 1998, the Water Supply Revolving Loan Account (WSRLA) provides below-market interest rate loans for compliance-related improvements for community water systems and nonprofit, non-community public water systems.
More information about the WSRLA is available at: epa.ohio.gov/defa/EnvironmentalandFinancialAssistance.aspx.
