U.S. Department of Agriculture USDA Rural Development RD Deputy Under Secretary Justin Maxson announced sewer system improvements funded by a $2,543,000.00 USDA loan and a $6,039,000.00 grant that was obligated on Sept. 2, 2021. Participating in the announcement was U.S. Congressman Sanford Bishop D-GA-02, Mayor Kevin Brown, Georgia Rural Waters Association Executive Director Jimmy Matthews, local leaders, and stakeholders at the city hall of Buena Vista, Georgia, on Sept 16, 2021 

The wastewater collection and treatment system supports the 2,173 residents of Buena Vista, Ga.
“For decades, our country’s infrastructure hasn’t received the attention it needed. The consequences of this disinvestment have fallen hardest on communities of color and rural towns and cities where residents face the harshest economic realities,” said Maxson. “Livable communities – communities with a growing economy, effective community services like health care, and affordable housing – need modern and reliable water and sewer infrastructure. Under the leadership of President Biden and Vice President Harris, USDA is investing in communities and people who need it the most: to help them build back better, stronger and more equitably than ever before.”
USDA is funding this project through the Water and Waste Disposal Loan and Grant Program. The investment, which consists of a $2.6 million loan and $6 million grant, will finance the construction of a replacement treatment plant that will reduce sewage spills and backups and increase system efficiency.
