The City of Peekskill Awarded Over Eight Hundred Thousand Dollars in Funding from the New York State Regional Economic Development Council for Water Quality Improvement Project

Peekskill, N.Y. - The City of Peekskill has been awarded over $800 thousand in funding from the New York State Regional Economic Development Council through the Water Quality Improvement Project program for its inflow and infiltration sewer line replacement project. The project will separate 12 catch basin stormwater connections from its sanitary sewer system to reduce the amount of stormwater that flows with sewage to the County wastewater treatment facility, helping to improve the City's infrastructure and water quality in the Hudson River. This separation requires the installation of 3000 feet of new stormwater pipes, also covered by the grant.
