Prattsburgh, NY gets $4.9 million federal funding for water system overhaul
(UI) — Congressman Nick Langworthy (NY-23) has announced a $4.9 million federal loan to improve water infrastructure in the Town of Prattsburgh, NY.
The funding, provided by the U.S. Department of Agriculture's (USDA) Rural Development Water and Waste Disposal Loan and Grant Program, will replace outdated water mains, ensuring a safe, clean, and reliable water supply for the community.
“Every family and business in Prattsburgh should be able to count on safe, clean water whenever they turn on the tap,” said Congressman Langworthy. “This $4.9 million investment will modernize the town’s water system and put an end to the disruptions and reliability issues that have impacted the community. These upgrades will not only improve daily life for residents, but they’ll also create good-paying jobs—boosting the local economy and supporting Prattsburgh’s future growth.”
The loan will fund the replacement of aging water distribution lines, which have caused service disruptions in the past. The upgrades will improve water quality, reduce the risk of water main breaks, and provide more reliable service for residents and businesses. This project is a critical step toward ensuring a stronger and healthier future for the Prattsburgh community.
