DNR awards $30,000 grant to city of Anderson


(From the Missouri Department of Natural Resources)

The Missouri Department of Natural Resources has awarded a $30,000 Drinking Water Engineering Report Grant to the city of Anderson to evaluate the city’s drinking water system. The grant offers funding to qualified small communities to help cover engineering costs for evaluating drinking water system improvements.

The city will use the grant to thoroughly assess its drinking water system and identify improvements for greater efficiency, effectiveness and capacity, as well as to continue meeting all drinking water standards.








Every community relies on its water and wastewater systems to support its health and economic vitality. With the assistance of this grant, Anderson can identify improvements needed to continue providing safe drinking water and to help ensure the community has the infrastructure in place to support future growth and development.

The department is committed to assisting Missouri communities with water and wastewater infrastructure improvement projects. Through its Financial Assistance Center, the department provides funding opportunities for communities with water quality, wastewater and drinking water infrastructure needs. This project will be funded wholly or in part with monies received from the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency.
