(Industry Borough, PA) Representative Josh Kail announced yesterday that the Pennsylvania Infrastructure Investment Authority (PENNVEST) awarded a grant worth $5.547 million to Industry Borough Municipal Authority for its ongoing water quality project. 

Several upgrades will be made to the process of drinking water treatment disinfection, and this includes adding both a raw water tank for oxidation and a 6,000-gallon distribution pumping tank, as well as installing an emergency generator and the cleaning of two groundwater wells. 

This investment is the result of collaboration between state and local leaders who share a commitment to improving the quality of life for local residents.

Kail worked to secure this funding, and he thanked local officials throughout this process for their advocacy, dedication and partnership.

These resources will help strengthen the community.
