Iowans in small communities without proper wastewater treatment can stop by
one of six upcoming open houses to learn more about sewer and septic system
options.

 

The open houses will offer information on types of sewer and septic systems,
funding opportunities, and proposed rules concerning wastewater systems and
disadvantaged communities. 

 

The sessions are jointly hosted by the Iowa League of Cities, the Iowa Rural
Water Association, the Iowa Association of Municipal Utilities, the Iowa
State Association of Counties and the Iowa Department of Natural Resources.

Agriculture, Iowa Economic Development Authority and Iowa Finance Authority,
will be available at the open houses.
