Dana Ground Breaking Ceremony

On Friday, August 20, 2010 at 2:30 P.M., a ground breaking ceremony took place at the Dana Fire Station located at the corner of Maple and Parkwood Streets for a New Wastewater Treatment and Collection System Project.  This $6.7 million project will consist of a New Activated Sludge Wastewater Treatment Facility, Conventional Gravity Sewers, two (2) Lift Stations, and a small laboratory.

This project was partially funded by ARRA (American Recovery and Reinvestment Act) funds through USDA Rural Development in the form of a grant and low interest loan.  The Town also received a Disaster Recovery Grant from the Office of Community and Rural Affairs.

The New Wastewater Treatment Plant and Collection System Project was designed by Commonwealth Engineers, Inc. and will be constructed by Atlas Excavation, Graves Plumbing Company, and B&T Drainage and Excavating.  This project will begin immediately and will be completed in approximately ten (10) months.
