Carper, Coons, Blunt Rochester Announce $3 Million to Repair Wilmington's Wastewater Infrastructure
Press Release
Issues: Environment
"In May 2022, I hosted EPA Administrator Regan in Delaware to show him some of our wastewater systems in great need of federal funding. Today, I am pleased that EPA is investing in projects all over the country -- including in Wilmington -- to repair our aging infrastructure. Thanks to the congressionally directed spending process and the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law, the City of Wilmington is going to be able to upgrade its wastewater and sewer system in a way that makes the city more resilient to climate change. When completed, these upgrades will help prevent flooding and preserve the integrity of surrounding bodies of water, including the Brandywine River."
