updates: The Laurens County Water and Sewer Commission has been awarded $3.9 million in funding from the Biden-Harris Administration's rural infrastructure projects. The funding will be used to construct 29,500 linear feet of waterline, a new 1,000,000-gallon elevated water tank, site work, and connections to the existing water system. This project will improve pressure, reliability, and resiliency for the area of the system north of Interstate 385, benefiting 16,000 users. The Laurens County project is one of four projects in South Carolina funded by the USDA as part of the $18.5 million investment in rural infrastructure projects. The USDA is also investing $51.7 million to expand access to high-speed internet in rural areas across the country. The funding is made possible by President Biden's Bipartisan Infrastructure Law, which provides $65 billion for expanding reliable, affordable, high-speed internet. The Laurens County project is part of the USDA's Water and Waste Disposal Loan and Grant Program, which has provided $3.7 billion in funding for 338 ReConnect projects since the beginning of the Biden-Harris Administration, bringing high-speed internet access to over 485,000 people in rural America [f61985c4].
