North dearborn Water expansion
The North Dearborn Water Authority (NDWA) is a not-for-profit water utility that provides reliable drinking water service to approximately 2,200 homes, Sunman Dearborn School Corporation, businesses, and industries. The NDWA service area is primarily located in Dearborn County, with a quantity of customers in Franklin and Ripley County. Importantly for the I-74 Corridor, the NDWA serves areas along Interstate 74 where economic growth is projected.
Southeastern Indiana REMC and Hoosier Energy completed their site development evaluation for Dearborn County, Indiana on July 8, 2021. This report identified approximately 20 sites immediately adjacent to water mains identified by the NDWA to extend north of I-74 immediately west of St. Leon.
The project READI funds will contribute to water system, engineering & design, and bidding/construction administration.
