The Pennsylvania Infrastructure Investment Authority will hold a series of five Information Exchange meetings across the state for project sponsors to learn about how PennVEST operates and about new nonpoint source control funding available.

Representatives of approved projects, as well as individuals from the consulting community and contractors are being invited to participate to discuss how PennVEST is making it easer to manage loans and grants under their programs through web-based processes.

During the meetings, discussion will also center on updates to other PennVEST non-point source initiatives. Staff from PennVEST will provide an overview of how additional money is being made available through the program.

Space at the meetings is limited. To reserve a spot, people are asked to contact Lou Ann Buffington at 717-787-8138 or by e-mail at lbuffingto@state.pa.us. Meetings begin with registration at 8:30 a.m. and adjourn at noon.
