The Oklahoma Water Resources Board (OWRB) was awarded a $739,000 Formula Grant from the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) under the Sewer Overflow and Stormwater Reuse Municipal Grant Program (CFDA 66.447). The funding will support planning and engineering design activities for approximately 6,471 linear feet of sanitary sewer rehabilitation and relocation within the Taneha Utilities Authority (UA) service area in Creek County, Oklahoma. The project aims to address issues with inflow and infiltration in the sewer system, which have led to sewer overflows and water quality impairments in the local watersheds. The engineering design work will identify deficient sewer lines, recommend corrective actions, and facilitate future construction projects to improve the reliability and environmental performance of the municipal wastewater infrastructure. This planning effort is expected to benefit the rural and financially distressed communities served by the Taneha UA.
