Oregon to get $92M for replacing lead pipes, service lines

Oregon will soon receive more than $92 million in federal money from the bipartisan Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act to strengthen drinking and wastewater systems and replace lead service lines and pipes. This funding is the first round of a five-year investment authorized by the new law. "Access to safe and reliable drinking water is critical for our communities to stay healthy and thrive," said Congresswoman Suzanne Bonamici (OR-01) in a news release.
