Project Scope:

This project will add approximately 28,100 linear feet of waterline and a new water tower to service the community, elementary school and park along Tryon Courthouse Rd. This project is fully funded by the federal American Rescue Plan Act (ARPA) grant.

This project is being supported, in whole, or in part, by federal award number CFDA 21.027 awarded to Gaston County by the US Department of the Treasury.

Background:

Gaston County has received federal funding under the American Rescue Plan Act (ARPA) to improve critical infrastructure and utilities for county residents. The County is using part of this grant money to expand water and sewer services to outlying areas. Of particular focus are public schools, who pose a higher throughput demand and are currently experiencing capacity and flow rate issues stemming from their aging well systems.
