PennVEST Waives DEP Permit Requirements For February 16 Application Deadline
The Pennsylvania Infrastructure Investment Authority is waiving the requirement to have state and other permits in place for applications submitted to meet the February 16 deadline.
 
The move was made because PennVEST is expecting significant water-related infrastructure funding through the federal stimulus funding now being considered in Congress.
 
However, PennVEST emphasized permits must be reasonably anticipated to be in place in time for project construction to begin in the spring or early summer.
 
This waiver applies only to this round of funding. (click here for full announcement)
