The City of Georgetown has begun the proposed Water Infrastructure Improvements including new water main which is being financed by the Public Water Supply Loan Program (PWSLP) in the approximate amount of $1,875,000 at 1.00% APR; and the proposed Wastewater Plant Infrastructure Improvements including rehabilitation of the Trickling Filter, Final Settling Tanks and PBR Lift Station which are being financed by the Water Pollution Control Loan Program (WPCLP) in the approximate amount of $810,000 at 1.00% APR. The PWSLP and WPCLP are administered by the Illinois Environmental Protection Agency and receive a portion of money to fund these type of projects from the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency. Once complete, these projects will provide reliable infrastructure and improve water quality for area residents and businesses in the City of Georgetown. SRF programs operate in each state to provide communities the resources necessary to build, maintain and improve the infrastructure that protects one of our most valuable resources: water.
