Machias receives $786k grant to complete pump station siphon
by Sarah Craighead Dedmon
Thanks to a sizable grant, Machias has moved one large step closer to finishing its sewer reconstruction project, which began before the pandemic but stalled due to an increase in the cost of materials.
The grant of $786,440 will not require a matching payment from the town, and adds to more than $2 million in funds already set aside for the project.
