Warren was one of 11 northeast Ohio communities to be awarded $183 million in financing from Ohio EPA to do wastewater and drinking water infrastructure projects.
Warren’s wastewater division has been authorized to use $44.9 million in loans for Phase 1 of an improvement project at the city’s pump stations and wastewater treatment plant, according to the city’s Wastewater Division director.
The city has not received money but the authorization to pay for the projects, according to Ed Haller, director of the city’s Water Pollution Control division.
Phase 1 of the plant and pump station capital improvement plan is designed to refurbish both the South Leavitt and Main Avenue pump stations, install a new septic receiving station and refurbish the plant screen building and refurbish the balance of the primary settling tanks and clarifiers, as well as updating the process monitoring and electrical systems.
