The City of Fayette received a $124,715 Project Grant from the Delta Regional Authority under the Delta Area Economic Development (CFDA 90.201) program. The funding will be used over a 2-year period ending in November 2025 to address issues with a compromised sewer lagoon, where raw, untreated waste had been flowing through breaks in the dam into a nearby creek due to problems with the city's sewer collection system. The grant will enable the city to make necessary improvements and repairs to this sewer infrastructure to mitigate the environmental issue. Additionally, the City of Fayette has received two sub-awards from the Mississippi Development Authority for other sewer improvement projects, though the funding amounts are not specified.
