BALTIMORE (AP) — Baltimore will get more than $20 million in grants to help prevent sanitary sewer overflows.
Maryland’s Board of Public Works approved the Bay Restoration Fund grants on Wednesday.
The Maryland Department of the Environment said in a news release that the grants will help Baltimore improve the existing sanitary sewer infrastructure in the Patapsco and Herring Run sewersheds.
The board also approved nearly $1.4 million in loans and grants to extend water service in Lonaconing in Allegany County. Approval was also given to a $300,000 revolving loan grant to Allegany County to help fund the Creek Road Water Distribution Project.
