| The
U.S. Dept. of Agriculture's
(USDA) Office of Rural
Development has announced a grant of
$2,400,000 and a $1,768,000
loan for the Town of
Grantsville for water and wastewater improvements.
In an earlier announcement, Gov. Jim Justice announced a $1,000,000 Appalachian Regional Commission grant for the Town of Grantsville's
water treatment plant improvements.
The plant and system
are suffering from inadequate storage capacity
and plant operating deficiencies.
The work includes upgrading parts
of the water treatment
plant and constructing
a new and larger water
storage tank. The project
will serve 1,550 existing
customers.
The projects are based on news releases from federal and state officials.
The Town of Grantsville did not respond to numerous requests to clarify these projects, which appear to total $4,168,000.
