From the EPA STAG Water & Wastewater Infrastructure Project Account, which will go to Anson County. The project will install approximately 50,000 LF of new 24-inch water line from ground storage in Lilesville to the county’s water tank in Wadesboro to ensure reliability for water availability and regional water sales. The 24-inch water line was installed in 1966. Presently, Anson County provides water services to 11 other municipalities. Funding for this project will help the county to continue to provide water services to the other municipalities who are experiencing drought, water infrastructure rehabilitation, and other problems. The project will assist local, state, and federal governments to provide needed water infrastructure for an economically distressed area.
