(KLZA)-- The U.S. Department of Commerce has announced that the Economic Development Administration is awarding the City of Tecumseh a $1.2 – million grant for utility infrastructure improvements.
The upgrades will be designed to increase electrical generation capacity and stability.
The grant will require a $304,863 local match which will come from the Tecumseh Utility Department.
The project was made possible by regional planning efforts led by the Southeast Nebraska Development District.
The work will include improvements to the cooling tower, the power plant and an upgrade of electrical service to the power plant in Tecumseh.
The grant funds are provided by the Additional Supplemental Appropriations for Disaster Relief Act of 2019.
