Dorchester Council approves $489,500 Bay Restoration Fund application for pump station replacements
Summary
The council unanimously approved submission of a $489,500 Bay Restoration Fund Wastewater and Supplemental Assistance Grant application to MDE to design and construct replacement pump stations at Pinks Pond and Algonquin wastewater treatment stations; three-year performance period and no local match required.
Dorchester County Council on Feb. 4 voted unanimously to confirm a $489,500 Bay Restoration Fund Wastewater and Supplemental Assistance Grant application to the Maryland Department of the Environment to design and construct replacement pump stations at the Pinks Pond and Algonquin wastewater facilities.
Marilyn Williams, Grant Writer, requested confirmation of the application on behalf of Peter McElroy, Water & Wastewater Director. Councilman Ricky C. Travers moved to confirm the application; Councilman Rob Kramer seconded and the motion passed unanimously.
The grant is described in the minutes as covering design and construction with a three-year performance period and no required local match. The minutes do not include a detailed project timeline or a breakdown of how the award would be allocated between design and construction; those specifics are to be provided in grant application materials and subsequent project documents.
The action follows the council's earlier consent items that confirmed Waterway Improvement Fund awards to multiple marina and boat ramp projects.
