(Carnegie, PA) According to a release yesterday in Carnegie from Congressman Chris Deluzio’s office, Deluzio introduced the Sewer Overflow and Stormwater Reuse Grant Reauthorization Act. This bill would reauthorize federal grants worth about $350 million for multiple purposes. They are to assist municipalities that are local to fight flooding and so these communities can both maintain and manage their water systems.
