Los Angeles sanitation officials received a $224 million loan from the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency to help finance a project to purify wastewater and replenish the San Fernando Basin amid a historic drought, officials said.
The loan, part of the Water Infrastructure Finance and Innovation Act, will help fund the city's Donald C. Tillman Advanced Water Purification Facility, which will purify 15.5 million gallons of the city’s wastewater every day to replenish the San Fernando Basin and its aquifers.
The project is expected to be complete in 2027 and to create about 1,400 jobs. Read the full story here.
