VALEMOUNT – The communities of Valemount and Loon Lake are the latest recipients of federal and provincial funding aimed at improving drinking water quality, Betty Hinton, MP for Kamloops-Thompson-Cariboo and Shirley Bond, Deputy Premier and MLA for Prince George-Mount Robson, said today in announcing nearly $2 million in combined funding from the Canada-B.C. Municipal Rural Infrastructure Fund (CBCMRIF).
The Village of Valemount will receive more than $1.93 million to construct a drinking water treatment system that includes a new filtration plant and building, associated piping and electrical works and the installation of a low lift pump.

Don Quixote Note: This is the same pot of senior Government Money (MRIF) that a grant was applied for in January 2007 for the Library/Civic Complex. Maybe our application will be announced shortly.
