Funding approved for WSSC Water bioenergy project

Earlier this month, the Maryland Board of Public Works (BPW) approved an estimated $25 million in loans and loan forgiveness to WSSC Water to help Maryland’s largest water utility continue efforts to protect local waterways and the Chesapeake Bay with the construction of the Piscataway Bioenergy Project.

A portion of the loan, $3 million, is the first funding WSSC Water has received under the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law, signed into law by President Joe Biden in November 2021.
