PITTSTON, April 15 -
State Sen. Ray Musto (D-14; Luzerne, Carbon,
Monroe) today announced a low-interest state
loan totaling over $651,000 for the Borough
of Freeland to prevent flooding and erosion.
“I am pleased that state dollars will be
used to improve the storm water system in
Freeland,“ Musto said. “Once completed, we
will reduce yard pollutants in our streams
and the necessity to repair our streets so
often.”
Musto said the funds will be used for about
3,000 feet of piping, 15 inlets, two
manholes and other storm water improvements
to stop residential flooding and the erosion
of street pavement.
The PENNVEST Board approved the funding at
its meeting. Musto has served on the
PENNVEST board since 1988. |
