St. Petersburg Borough in Clarion County has received $4.4 million through the Pennsylvania Infrastructure Investment Authority (PennVEST) for water improvement projects.
The money will be used to construct a water treatment plant and replace 7,400 feet of asbestos cement waterline, as well as numerous service connections and fire hydrants.
The project includes the installation of a 100-gallon-per-minute dual train packaged water treatment plant, a new treatment building located on the other side of the raw water reservoir, replacement of about 7,400 feet of waterline, 1,550 feet of waterline to eliminate dead ends, and replacement of 64 service connections and eight fire hydrants.
Funding for the project originates from a combination of state funds approved by voters, Growing Greener, Marcellus Legacy funds, federal grants to PennVEST from the Environmental Protection Agency, and recycled loan repayments from previous PennVEST funding awards.
