Argall Announces Grant for Lynn Township, Lehigh County

HARRISBURG – State Senator David G. Argall (R-29) today announced a state grant that will improve the health and safety of Lehigh County residents.

According to Argall, an $82,310.57 grant has been awarded to Lynn Township under the Sewage Facilities Grants Program of Act 537 of 1966.

The grant is administered by the Pennsylvania Department of Environmental Protection (DEP) and will be used to reimburse 50 percent of the costs for preparing sewage plans and revisions to official plans for sewage systems.

"Without financial assistance and partnership from the Commonwealth, these improvement projects would not be possible," Argall explained. This funding is critical for helping protect the health and safety of Lynn Township residents and to open up opportunities for economic growth and job creation,” Argall added.
