The Department of Commerce Economic Development Administration awarded a $2.86 million Project Grant to Preston County Public Service District NO4 under the Economic Adjustment Assistance program (CFDA 11.307). The funding will support increasing the water supply capacity for northern Preston County, West Virginia to help address economic impacts from a recent coal plant closure. Key services include expanding water infrastructure to serve the Federal Correctional Complex, Northpointe Business and Industry Park, and major manufacturers such as Allegheny Wood Products, Interstate Hardwoods, Grant County Mulch, Pioneer Conveyor, Spirit Energy, Carpenter Technology, and Prodigi. Completing this project is expected to save and create jobs, bolster economic resiliency in the region, and stimulate private investment—all while addressing needs from the ongoing decline in the local coal industry.
