This $5.5 million Project Grant from the Department of Commerce Economic Development Administration's Economic Adjustment Assistance program supports infrastructure improvements to the City of Lone Grove, Oklahoma's water system. The funding will increase the volume and pressure of fresh water production and delivery in south central Oklahoma. The current water system was at capacity, stifling new economic and residential development in Lone Grove. A moratorium had prevented existing businesses from expanding and new businesses from developing. Once completed, the upgraded water infrastructure will boost emerging business opportunities and further economic diversification in the region by allowing the City and Chickasaw Nation to grow economically. The sole sub-awardee, the City of Lone Grove, will implement the water system improvements using the Jun 14, 2022 awarded funds.
