Tarkio has received a $30,000 grant to test its drinking water.
The Missouri Department of Natural Resources has awarded a Drinking Water Engineering Report Grant to the Tarkio Board of Public Works to evaluate the city’s drinking water system.
Through its Drinking Water Engineering Report Grant program, the department provides money to qualified communities. The money can be used to evaluate the public drinking water system and to decide if any improvements are needed to maintain quality and provide reliable water service.
The Natural Resources Department, in a news release, states that during the assessment, “communities can determine what actions are needed to address current drinking water needs and plan for future growth and development.”
