This Federal Formula Grant award from the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) under the Water Infrastructure Improvements for the Nation Small and Underserved Communities Emerging Contaminants Grant Program (CFDA 66.442) provides $787,000.00 to the Connecticut Department of Public Health to assist the Connecticut Water Company's Nathan Hale System in the Town of Coventry, CT. The funding will be used to install a new water main extension to provide a safe supply of drinking water to 5 homes on Plains Road that were previously underserved. The expected outcomes include mitigating health risks from drinking water not meeting Safe Drinking Water Act standards, reducing the number of public water systems out of compliance, and improving the technical, managerial, and financial capacity of the public water system to increase its resilience. This award aims to increase the number of households with safe, adequate, reliable, and sustainable drinking water services in disadvantaged communities within Connecticut.
