Lycoming County commissioners approved a $287,379 state grant to fund a gas pipeline extension to the Timber Run Industrial Park at their meeting this week.
Digger Specialties, Inc. is set to open a facility for employing up to 150 people at the site along Route 15 across from the county landfill.
Lycoming County Planning and Community Development Executive Director Shannon Rossman said the grant will fund a portion of the project.
She noted that additional infrastructure work will include road work for access to the site.
The Commonwealth Financing Authority approved the grant for the project in April.
In other action, commissioners approved McTish, Kunkel & Associates for inspection work at a cost of $76,734 for the first phase of the county bridge bundling construction project.
