Today, Senator Shelley Moore Capito announced Congressionally Directed Spending (CDS) allocations for water infrastructure projects throughout West Virginia.
The individual allocation details are listed below:
- $2,500,000 CDS allocation to City of Pennsboro (Ritchie County, W.Va .) to replace aging infrastructure and non-operational water valves to increase fire-fighting capabilities and to reduce water loss.
- $2,250,000 CDS allocation to Clarksburg Water Board (Harrison County, W.Va .) to replace problematic lead service lines and non-operational valves and fire hydrants.
- $1,500,000 CDS allocation to Tucker County Commission (Tucker County, W.Va .) to create one regional collection system and wastewater treatment plant to meet the expanding infrastructure needs.
- $1,500,000 CDS allocation to the City of Weston (Lewis County, W.Va .) to extend sewer service along Corridor H to better serve existing and future customers and support economic development.
“The need for clean water across West Virginia is critical,” Senator Capito said. “These investments will go a long way in making sure communities across our state have more efficient water systems that better serve residents and businesses. By directing federal funding to projects like these, we are helping ensure stronger, healthier communities and a brighter future for all West Virginians.”
