Infrastructure project improves water pressure and service reliability for Cape Water System customers  

$5.8 Million Grant Secured from NC Department of Water Infrastructure for PFAS Treatment Projects in Cumberland County

Grant supports Aqua’s commitment to protecting customers and minimizing the cost of removing “forever chemicals” to meet new federal standards

Aqua North Carolina announced that it has secured $5.8 million grant funding through the North Carolina State Water Infrastructure Authority to construct PFAS mitigation projects at eight sites in Cumberland County.

At Aqua, we’re always proud of our projects that help to improve water quality for our customers, but this week, we have a special reason to highlight these positive changes: It’s Infrastructure Week!

As we all know by now, water infrastructure greatly impacts both the quality of your water and the quality of your life. By investing in new infrastructure in our service areas, we’re making strides to change our communities for the better. That’s why our team has been hard at work implementing a new filtration system in Upchurch Place, a community in Raleigh, North Carolina.
