The city of Branson West has received a $30,000 state grant to evaluate its drinking water system for needed improvements.
The funding comes from the Missouri Department of Natural Resources' Drinking Water Engineering Report Grant program, according to a news release.
“One of our priorities is helping Missouri communities maintain and improve their water and wastewater treatment systems,” said Dru Buntin, director of the state Department of Natural Resources, in the release. “One way we do that is by offering a variety of financial assistance programs through which qualified communities can improve key infrastructure and experience real economic benefits.”
The department has a financial assistance center to help communities implement water infrastructure improvements.
