Pea Ridge Public Service District

Pea Ridge Public Service District is a U.S. local government entity registered to receive federal grant awards since October 5, 2009. As a public service district, it provides essential utilities and infrastructure services to residents in the Pea Ridge area of West Virginia. The district primarily focuses on improving and expanding sewer infrastructure to support local economic development and extend services to unserved customers within its district boundaries. Through federal grant programs, Pea Ridge Public Service District has received both prime and sub-grant awards to carry out its infrastructure improvement projects, demonstrating its commitment to enhancing public services and promoting economic growth in the region.

The district has been involved in several significant infrastructure projects funded through federal grants. In April 2021, Pea Ridge Public Service District was awarded a $3,475,000 Project Grant from the Department of Commerce's Economic Development Administration under the Economic Adjustment Assistance program. This grant funded sewer extension to industry in Barboursville, West Virginia, aiming to stimulate industry growth and support economic development in the region. Additionally, the district has received multiple sub-grant awards through the West Virginia Department of Environmental Protection. These sub-grants have funded projects to extend sewer service to hundreds of unserved customers within the district's boundaries, with one project targeting 508 customers and another serving 197 customers. Another significant sub-grant project involved upgrading the district's wastewater treatment plant to enable further service extensions along Route 2 in Cabell County and facilitate potential future consolidation with the neighboring community of Barboursville. These projects demonstrate Pea Ridge Public Service District's focus on expanding and improving sewer infrastructure to benefit both residential and industrial customers in its service area.
