Lansing, MI – State Representative Bronna Kahle joined the Michigan House in approving a proposal to help more communities improve drinking water systems.
The measure clarifies state law to ensure municipal drinking water and wastewater systems that are becoming more energy efficient can better capitalize on the cost savings. These projects would be eligible for financing through Michigan’s state revolving loan fund programs – a lower-cost alternative to bonding.
Michigan law is currently silent on whether drinking water and wastewater systems using energy performance contracting are eligible for that type of financing.
House Bill 4123 moves to be considered by the state Senate.
