Below is a list of projects for the 4th Congressional District that was included at my request in the Fiscal Year 2008 Interior, Environment, and Related Agencies Appropriations bill (H.R. 2643). That bill eventually formed part of the end-of-the-year Consolidated Appropriations Act (Public Law 110-161).

Funding: $ 492,200
Description: Funding for the City of Durham’s efforts to upgrade aging water and wastewater infrastructure to maintain compliance with federal standards.

Project: Western Wake Water Reclamation Facility
