The Township of AuSable will hold a public hearing on the proposed Drinking Water State Revolving Fund Project Plan for the purpose of receiving comments from interested persons.
The hearing will be held at 5:00 p.m. on Wednesday, May 24, 2023, at the AuSable Township Hall located at 4420 North U.S.23, Au Sable Michigan, 48750.
The purpose of the proposed project is to provide high quality drinking water where PFAS concentrations have been found in groundwater. Distribution system looping is proposed to eliminate dead ends to increase reliability and water quality. In addition, new water meters are proposed to be installed.
Impacts of the proposed project will be providing a reliable source of high-quality drinking water eliminating the public health risks associated with PFAS and dead end watermains. Short term construction related impacts include increased noise and dust that will be temporary in nature during construction of the improvements.
The estimated cost to the users for the proposed project will be dependent upon final Project Scope, Project Costs, potential Grants and or Principal Forgiveness awards.
Copies of the plan detailing the proposed project are available for inspection at the Township Hall located at 4420 North U.S.23, Au Sable Michigan, 48750.
Written comments received before the meeting record is closed on Wednesday, May 24, 2023 will be included in the final project planning document. Written comments should be sent to AuSable Township. AuSable Township mailing address is 4420 North U.S.23, Au Sable Michigan, 48750.
