| Clean Water Referendum |
|
Nearly two-thirds of voters approved $400 million for water and sewer upgrades that will support 12,000 Pennsylvania jobs. This broad support expressed by Pennsylvania voters on Election Day will enable communities across the state to make critical repairs and upgrades to their water and sewer systems. The $400 million bond issue will allow the Pennsylvania Infrastructure Investment Authority, or PENNVEST, to award grants and loans for water treatment systems and pipelines. The money will be available for municipally owned drinking water and wastewater systems in every corner of the state, large or small, urban or rural. http://www.depweb.state.pa.us/dep/site/default.asp
