Award to help water upgrades

WASHINGTON, D.C. — U.S. Senator Shelley Moore Capito (R-W.Va.), Ranking Member of the Senate Environment and Public Works (EPW) Committee and a member of the Senate Appropriations Committee, announced funding from the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) to the Clarksburg Water Board (CWB) for water system upgrades.  

A total of $6,880,000 EPA CDS will be awarded to the Clarksburg Water Board to replace service lines in the Northview, Rosebud, and Stealey communities, as well as a transmission line off Van Buren Street.

It will also repair and remediate a water main break on West Pike Street in downtown Clarksburg.

 This award, which was secured through a Congressionally Directed Spending (CDS) request made solely by Capito, will provide funding for service line replacements and emergency repair and remediation of a water main break.
