Construction of upgrades and improvements to ACUA’s Regional Wastewater Collection System – ACUA Gravity Sewer Interceptor Lining Project, in Galloway, NJ, in the amount of $2,672,220, were financed by the New Jersey Water Bank (NJWB). The NJWB is a State Revolving Fund program jointly administered by the New Jersey Department of Environmental Protection (DEP) and the New Jersey Infrastructure Bank (Infrastructure Bank) and uses a combination of funds provided by the United States Environmental Protection Agency, the DEP, and the Infrastructure Bank to provide very low interest loans to borrowers for environmental infrastructure projects.
This project will provide water quality benefits by preventing infiltration of groundwater into the pipeline and improving the resilience of a critical span of the ACUA’s Regional Wastewater Collection System ensuring continued wastewater management to the community.
State Revolving Fund programs around the nation provide states and communities the resources necessary to maintain and improve the infrastructure protecting our valuable water resources nationwide.
