Congressman Larry Bucshon, M.D. (IN-08) announced grants for multiple towns across three counties in the Eighth Congressional District awarded by the United States Department of Agriculture for water and waste development projects directed at communities in rural America. I am pleased to see the United States Department of Agriculture make these important investments in our communities.Too many of America's ruraltowns and countieshave outdated, and sometimes even unsafe, drinking and wastewater infrastructure. The success ofthese Hoosier communitiesisdependent upon updated and properly maintained water infrastructure. These grants directed at water and waste disposalprojectswill ensure Hoosiers have access to clean and dependable water sourcesfor decades to come.
