$67 Million in Water, Wastewater, Brownfields Projects Announced

The Pennsylvania Infrastructure Investment Authority announced the approval of $67 million in grants and loans to fund water, wastewater and brownfield projects.

Most of the money -- $62.9 million-- was in the form of low-interest loans. Combined with $3.8 million in grants, PENNVEST will fund 11 clean water projects in nine counties.

The awards approved by PENNVEST range from a $382,950 loan to replace an old, leaking water line for a community in Allegheny County to a $15-million loan to expand the capacity of a wastewater treatment plant for the Sharon, Mercer County.

A complete list of projects provided funding is available online.
