The Missouri Department of Natural Resources has awarded a $50,000 Clean Water Engineering Report Grant to the city of Lone Jack to evaluate the city’s wastewater system.

The grant offers funding to qualified communities to help cover engineering costs for evaluating water and wastewater system improvements. Lone Jack will use the grant to identify wastewater system improvements needed to meet permit requirements, continue reliable service to the area and reduce storm water infiltration into sewer collection pipes. The facility plan should be complete in October 2024.
