The North Dakota Department of Environmental Quality announced Wednesday that its State Revolving Fund (SRF) Programs awarded loans to four communities in March.

Jamestown - $2,123,000 Drinking Water State Revolving Fund (DWSRF) loan for watermain rehabilitation, hydrants, gate valves and pressure-reducing manhole/valves. This project will ensure the reliable and safe distribution of water.

Mapleton - $1,400,000 DWSRF loan to construct a 300,000-gallon ground storage reservoir, improve pumping capabilities and remove an existing water tower. The project will provide reliable drinking water storage and supply capabilities.

Mohall - $391,000 DWSRF loan to replace 2,000 linear feet of 8-inch water main, gate valves and multiple connections to existing water lines. This project will ensure the reliable and safe delivery of water.

Wahpeton - $3,000,000 Clean Water State Revolving Fund (CWSRF) loan and $1,197,000 DWSRF loan towards improving underground infrastructure during street reconstruction and work on Lift Stations 2 and 3. This project will ensure the reliable and safe delivery of water and continued wastewater service.

The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency provides part of the funding for the SRF Programs, which offer below-market interest rate loans to political subdivisions for financing projects authorized under the Clean Water Act and Safe Drinking Water Act. SRF programs operate nationwide to provide funding to maintain and improve the infrastructure that protects our vital water resources.
