The City of Donaldsonville was awarded a $10,000,000 Project Grant from the U.S. Department of Transportation's Pipeline and Hazardous Materials Safety Administration (PHMSA) under the Natural Gas Distribution Infrastructure Safety and Modernization Grant Program (CFDA 20.708). This grant funding supports the city's efforts to repair, rehabilitate, or replace its natural gas distribution pipeline system and acquire equipment to reduce safety incidents, fatalities, and economic losses, as well as eliminate methane leaks. The ultimate goal is to improve the safe delivery of energy to the Donaldsonville community. The award period runs from April 2024 to April 2027, and the city is the sole recipient with no known sub-recipients. This federal grant program provides financial assistance to municipality and community-owned utilities for modernizing natural gas distribution infrastructure to enhance public safety and environmental sustainability.
