Iowa Senate pinches sewage funds for early projects
Des Moines Iowa. The Senate Appropriations Committee endorsed an amendment undermining promised state aid to early sewage treatment builders. A $15 million two year program would offer $6 million per year in state matching funds, plus $3 million for communities completed between 1966 and 1969, but a rider requiring at least 50 percent federal matching would likely prevent spending.
