Collin Peterson (D-Minn.) announced over $35 million for Water and Wastewater Infrastructure improvements in rural Minnesota communities. The funding comes from the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) Rural Development Water and Waste Disposal Loan and Grant Program. Upgrading and investing in local water systems creates jobs while keeping communities healthy, Peterson said. These funds are critical to meeting our rural communities' water treatment needs. The upgrades will improve the drinking water, storm water drainage, and waste water systems in Redwood, Mahnomen, Douglas, Cottonwood, Big Stone, and Lyon counties.
