Preserve Pride, Progress and Prosperity in Southwest Arkansas
The Southwest Arkansas Water District seeks a 9.6 million dollar grant and 4.8 million dollar loan from the Economic Development Administration to fund Millwood Dam water distribution to Nekoosa Edwards and area towns. Approval by the Secretary of Commerce is pending, with August Washington visit planned to press for rapid action and avoid delays to mills and municipal water supplies. The urgency frames local political stakes and the future of Hope, Hempstead County, and surrounding communities.
