ROSSFORD — Ohio EPA has issued a $1.29 million low-interest loan to the Northwestern Water and Sewer District to replace drinking water supply lines in the city.
Ohio’s Water Supply Revolving Loan Account provides loans at interest rates below market rate. Over the 20-year life of the loan, the district will save an estimated $283,700 when compared to the market rate.
The Northwestern Water and Sewer District will upgrade 6,200 feet of water line at multiple sites in Rossford, including Rinker Court, Colony Court, Colony Road, Windsor Drive, Elm Street, Eagle Point Road, Buck Road and Lime City Road.
The work will create critical water line loops for redundancy of service, correct improperly connected service taps, replace old line, increase line capacity and eliminate a few lines that are underneath houses. Pipe will be installed under Grassy Creek at one point with no significant impact on the creek.
