(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U.S. Department of Agriculture's (USDA) Rural Development Water and Waste Disposal Loan and Grant Program, will replace outdated water mains, ensuring a safe, clean, and reliable water supply for the community.
