Washington D.C.\u2014<\/em><\/strong>U.S. Senators Ron Wyden and Jeff Merkley today announced that the city of Molalla has secured a $33.25 million loan and a $2 million grant to update its wastewater treatment facility.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n

\u201cFederal investment in modern infrastructure is a must for Oregonians counting on public health and for communities statewide\u00a0needing to operate efficiently,\u201d dijo Wyden.<\/strong>\u00a0\u201cThese federal funds achieve both objectives for residents and small businesses in Molalla, and I\u2019ll keep battling for similar opportunities throughout our state.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

\n

\u201cAs I hold town halls in every corner of Oregon, I often hear deep concerns about aging water infrastructure, especially in rural communities,\u201d dijo Merkley. <\/strong>\u201cThese federal funds will ensure that the city of Molalla can build the wastewater treatment facility they need to protect the health of all community members. I\u2019ll continue to do all I can to\u202fensure every community in Oregon and across the nation has reliable water sanitation by addressing outdated water infrastructure.\u201d\u202f\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

The federal investment from the U.S. Department of Agriculture will include construction to improve wastewater treatment, and upgrades of the city’s wastewater collection system. The federal funds are through the\u00a0Water and Waste Disposal Loans and Grants<\/a> program and the\u00a0Solid Waste Management Grants<\/a> programa.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n

\u201cOur growing community began rebuilding our city\u2019s 1950s-era wastewater treatment plant last month, and the improvements are expected to serve Molalla residentsnd businesses for the next 20 years,\u201d said Molalla City Manager Dan Huff.<\/strong> \u201cThese federal resources will go entirely to the treatment plant\u2019s reconstruction, and we very much appreciate the support of Senators Wyden and Merkley for this key investment in Mollala\u2019s growing future.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
