South Haven Area Water Sewer Authority

This Project Plan outlines the strategy to qualify for Clean Water State Revolving Fund (CWSRF) funding for critical wastewater infrastructure improvements. The plan focuses on regionalization by connecting Palisades Power Plant, Covert Township, and Van Buren State Park to SHAWSA's system, ensuring long-term system sustainability through upgrades that enhance operational reliability and environmental performance. Key objectives include rehabilitating existing collection and treatment infrastructure, improving regional capacity to meet regulatory compliance, and minimizing financial and environmental impacts. The plan addresses existing issues such as capacity limitations, compliance violations (TIN, phosphorus, PFAS), and aging infrastructure, with the goal of improving water quality and public health over a 20-year planning period.
