This project will rehabilitate an inactive well and nearby infrastructure to improve water capacity and support industrial and residential water needs throughout Red Bay. By upgrading existing infrastructure and addressing deficiencies in water flow, the water system in Red Bay will be able to reliably support schools, businesses, and economic development. “This grant will create long-term prosperity and support economic development for the City of Red Bay by ensuring the Cooper Springs Well and Pump House infrastructure is updated and reliable,” said Congressman Aderholt. “As the existing water system prohibits proper water flow, this ARC grant is a step towards bringing new businesses and supporting existing industries in Red Bay.” The ARC grant is for $500,000 and in addition to ARC funds, local sources are providing $1,800,000 bringing the project total to $2,300,000. The Appalachian Regional Commission is an economic development partnership of the federal government and 13 state governments focused on strengthening economic growth and opportunity across the Appalachian region.
