Lycoming County commissioners Tuesday approved a contract with Wood Environment and Infrastructure Solutions, Blue Bell, for the levee project.
The $285,700 agreement will cover operational, maintenance and costs associated with bringing the levee and its needs up to date.
Shannon Rossman, county planning director, noted that having such an agreement in place will help with receiving future funding for the levee.
“This is to actually let everyone know what the actual operation and maintenance will be going forward,” she said.
Commissioner Rick Mirabito noted that the agreement will help implement best practices for costs associated with the levee.
