Drinking Water State Revolving Fund
Town Water Projects
Dear Connie:
If you recall, Combined Wappinger Water, of which Fleetwood Water was
a part, applied for DWSRF funding as one $22 Million project. It has now
been proposed, however, that Fleetwood begin improvements as a
separate smaller project. Since the Town would like to receive funding
for this small project, a call was made to the New York State Department
of Health (N.Y.S.D.O.H.) in Albany to see how this could be done.
The procedure to follow, according to Charles Hudson of the
N.Y.S.D.O.H. can be summarized as follows:
Combined Wappinger Water should be broken into three
(3) smaller projects, namely
a. Fleetwood
b. Four (4) District Improvement Area
c. Remaining Areas.
A pre-application form should be submitted for each
project, placing them on the multi-year list.
The submission of plans and specifications for any of the
three would upgrade that project to the project readiness
list, and make it eligible for funding.
o The remaining projects would stay on the multi-year list,
until the Town was ready to proceed.

Our office is now in the process of completing the pre-application forms
for the three areas described. When these have been submitted, any
course of action decided upon by the Board regarding Fleetwood Water
would be eligible for DWSRF funding, while the remaining areas of
Combined Wappinger Water would remain on the N.Y.S.D.O.H. 's
Intended Use Plan Multi-Year list, until such time as the Town elects to
proceed.
If you have any questions or comments regarding this letter, please do
not hesitate to contact this office.
Very truly yours,
