Brownstown is Loaned Funds for Water Line Work

In honor of Earth Day last week, Acting State Director Molly Hammond announced the USDA is investing $23,250,000 in infrastructure to help communities build back bigger and stronger.

The Village of Brownstown will use a $60,000 loan to provide additional funding for a water main replacement project.

The project will install and replace approximately 21,500 linear feet of water main, part of which contains asbestos. Replacement of two-inch service line is also part of the project, along with installation of radio read meters and miscellaneous associated appurtenances. 

The improvements will bring the system back up to IEPA minimum standards and eliminate health and sanitary concerns.
