HARRISBURG - Rep. Valerie Gaydos (R-Allegheny) is pleased to announce the Pennsylvania Infrastructure Investment Authority (PENNVEST) has awarded a low-interest loan of more than $4.9 million to the Findlay Township Municipal Authority. This funding will be used to upgrade the wastewater treatment plant, ensuring the continued efficiency and reliability of the wastewater system serving the community.
The project involves constructing a new building adjacent to the existing office and garage on the wastewater treatment plant property. The new facility will provide essential additional office, locker and garage space to support the operations of the wastewater system. These improvements are crucial for maintaining high standards of service and environmental protection for Findlay Township residents.
“The PENNVEST loan is a substantial investment in our community's infrastructure,” said Gaydos “Investments like these are vital for the sustained growth and development of our communities. By upgrading our facilities, we are ensuring that our wastewater system can continue to operate effectively and efficiently, safeguarding the health and well-being of our residents.”
Gaydos extends her gratitude to PENNVEST for recognizing the importance of this project and providing the financial support needed to bring it to fruition. “The Findlay Township Municipal Authority has been a provider of reliable wastewater services, and this upgrade will bolster their capabilities to meet future demands,” said Gaydos. “I am committed to advocating for the resources and support necessary to ensure Findlay Township continues to thrive.”
Founded in 1988, PENNVEST provides grants and low-interest loans for design, engineering and construction of publicly and privately owned drinking water distribution and treatment facilities, as well as storm water and wastewater projects.
