Description: This action provides partial funding in the amount of $550,000 to support the Startex-Jackson-Wellford-Duncan Water District in South Carolina to implement its project to replace the water treatment plant's 250,000 gallons clearwell and 5 million gallons (MG) rectangular clearwell with a new 7.5 million gallons (MG) prestressed concrete ground storage tank as directed in the 2024 Consolidated Appropriations Act or as identified in an approved technical correction if one has been approved for this project.

Activities: The activities include the construction of a new 7.5 million gallons (MG) tank adjacent to the existing 5 million gallons (MG) clearwell next to the Middle Tyger High Service Pump Station.

The old 250,000 gallons and 5 million gallons (MG) clearwells will be abandoned in place and eventually demolished upon initiation of construction to replace the conventional treatment plant.

Subrecipient: No subawards are included in this assistance agreement.

Outcomes: The anticipated deliverable includes an increase to the overall finished water capacity needs from 10 million gallons (MG) to 12.5 million gallons (MG) at the Startex-Jackson-Wellford-Duncan Water District's water treatment plant.

The expected outcomes include becoming more efficient and cost effective in overall treatment and water production operations, and the continued production of safe and reliable drinking water.

The intended beneficiaries include the residents of the Startex-Jackson-Wellford-Duncan Water District in the state of South Carolina.
