Texas Water Board Approves $3M for San Angelo Water System Inventory

 

SAN ANGELO, TX — The Texas Water Development Board on Thursday approved $3 million in financial assistance to the City of San Angelo to complete an inventory of its water system. 

The assistance, approved by resolution, consists of $1.47 million in financing and $1.53 million in principal forgiveness from the Drinking Water State Revolving Fund Lead Service Line Replacement program. The funds will allow San Angelo, in Tom Green County, to inventory the remaining 6,442 lines in its system. 

In addition to the principal forgiveness, the city could save approximately $700,000 by using the Drinking Water State Revolving Fund. 

The Texas Water Development Board collects and disseminates water-related data, assists with regional water and flood planning, and prepares the state water and flood plans. 

The agency also administers cost-effective financial assistance programs for water supply, wastewater treatment, flood mitigation and agricultural water conservation projects.
