Ohio Sewer Projects Receive $3.2 Million

The Ohio EPA has awarded more than $3.2 million in low-interest loans from the Water Pollution Control Loan Fund to improve sewer systems across the state.

The projects receiving funding include:

  • $300,000 to the Village of Paulding for a combined sewer separation project, which includes the installation of new sanitary and storm sewers, and improvements to the existing sewer.
  • $1.06 million to Lorain County to reduce storm water infiltration and inflow into the Pheasant Run sanitary sewer.
  • $1.846 million to the Village of New Boston to help eliminate combined sewer overflows into the Ohio River, which includes separating combined sewers, installing an express sanitary sewer and replacing segments of sanitary and storm sewer pipes.

Created in 1989, the Water Pollution Control Loan Fund (WPCLF) provides below-market interest rate loans for communities to improve their wastewater treatment systems.
