KINGSFORD, MI— The City of Kingsford is getting funding from the U.S. Department of Agriculture to strengthen its infrastructure.
A $4.4 million loan will replace drinking water distribution mains and associated valves and hydrants that were originally installed in the 1920's. The 100-year-old system has been experiencing increased breakages as it exceeds its useful lifespan.
Investment from the State Revolving Fund makes up 67 percent of the total project and includes the replacement of lead service lines to residences.
