Waste disposal grants - regular

The Town of Hot Springs Town Hall received a $2.959 million Project Grant from the U.S. Department of Agriculture's Rural Utilities Service (RUS) under the Water and Waste Disposal Systems for Rural Communities program (CFDA 10.760), awarded on June 25, 2025. This award supports water and waste disposal infrastructure development and improvement projects serving the rural community of Hot Springs, Montana. The funding is designed to enhance critical infrastructure for drinking water systems, wastewater treatment facilities, and solid waste management systems while ensuring reasonable user costs for rural residents and businesses.

The RUS program targets financially needy rural communities to develop or improve essential water and waste management infrastructure. Awards under this initiative typically support infrastructure improvements with performance periods of one to two years and are administered through local USDA Rural Development offices. The Town of Hot Springs' award aligns with the program's objectives to enhance service quality and reliability in rural areas and reflects the recipient's established track record of successfully implementing community infrastructure projects in Montana.
