EPA sending more than $33 million to Jackson for water infrastructure upgrades
SUMMARY: Jackson, Mississippi, will receive over $33 million in federal funding from the EPA to enhance its water infrastructure, part of a broader $3.6 billion allocation through the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law. Designed to improve wastewater management and drinking water safety, the funds will support low-interest state loans. Following a severe water crisis that left many residents without clean water, the city is overseen by interim manager Ted Henifin until 2027. Political tensions persist, as state leaders push for control over water operations. Mayor Chokwe Antar Lumumba has proposed creating management boards to oversee the water system, while community feedback is encouraged until October 31.
