Pennsylvania Announces $68 Million for Water Projects

Pennsylvania Gov. Tom Wolf announced last week the investment of $68 million for 20 drinking water, wastewater and non-point source projects across 14 counties through the Pennsylvania Infrastructure Investment Authority (PENNVEST).

“The PENNVEST Board of Directors today continued its commitment to improving the drinking water consumed every day by citizens all across Pennsylvania while also helping to improve the quality of the Commonwealth’s remarkable system of rivers and streams”, said Wolf in a statement last week. ”These otherwise expensive projects are brought within the financial reach of the communities who received assistance today, due to the low interest rates and grants that PENNVEST is able to offer its funding recipients.”
