The Alabama Department of Environmental Management has made $3,487,000 in financial assistance available to the Ford’s Valley & Hwy 278 Water Co-Op using funds from the American Rescue Plan Act (ARPA) and the FY2023 Drinking Water State Revolving Fund (DWSRF). In accordance with State and Federal regulations that govern the program, the Alabama Department of Environmental Management has conducted a review to assess the potential impacts upon the environment that may result from implementation of this project.
