3 reservations get money for water
Three Indian reservations in Utah will get a boost of a little more than $1.2 million in stimulus money to improve water infrastructure.
The money is part of $9.5 million being distributed to six states for shovel-ready projects. Overall, across the country, $90 million will be distributed to improve public and environmental health in Indian Country.
An announcement by the Environmental Protection Agency said the money will go to upgrade infrastructure such as wastewater lagoon systems, sewer lines, water tanks and pipes.
Utah recipients are:
Skull Valley Goshutes, $193,900
Ute Tribe in Colorado, New Mexico and Utah, $902,080
Ute Tribe, Uintah and Ouray Reservation, $139,400
