Congressman Nick Langworthy (NY-23) announced a $4.9 million federal loan for the Town of Prattsburgh to support essential improvements to its water infrastructure. The funding, secured through the U.S. Department of Agriculture’s (USDA) Rural Development Water and Waste Disposal Loan and Grant Program, will replace outdated water mains and ensure a safe, clean, and reliable water supply for the community.
“Every family and business in Prattsburgh should be able to count on safe, clean water whenever they turn on the tap,” said Congressman Langworthy.“This $4.9 million investment will modernize the town’s water system and put an end to the disruptions and reliability issues that have impacted the community. These upgrades will not only improve daily life for residents, but they’ll also create good-paying jobs—boosting the local economy and supporting Prattsburgh’s future growth.”
The loan will fund the replacement of aging water distribution lines throughout Prattsburgh, addressing persistent service disruptions and enhancing overall water quality. By modernizing these vital systems, the town will significantly reduce the risk of water main breaks and ensure that residents and businesses can count on reliable service for years to come. This project is a key part of building a stronger, healthier future for the community.
