    By Appeal Staff Report,

    12 days ago

    The Yuba Water Agency Board of Directors approved $912,000 in community impact grants on Tuesday to support water infrastructure improvements, water safety and continued flood risk reduction work in South Yuba County.

    Among these grants was $605,000 awarded to the Olivehurst Public Utility District (OPUD) to support a sewer consolidation project, which will help convert nearly 150 homes from septic to sewer. Officials estimate that the utility district will save more than $5 million in implementation and construction costs by combining water and sewer upgrades into a simultaneous effort rather than separate construction projects.
