Press Release

OKLAHOMA CITY –The Town of Bromide (Town) received approval for $1,000,000 in funding Tuesday from the Oklahoma Water Resources Board (OWRB) to improve the Town’s wastewater infrastructure.  Construction of upgrades and improvements to the wastewater system will be financed by the Oklahoma American Rescue Plan Act (ARPA) grant program.

The Town owns and operates a wastewater treatment plant (WWTP). These proceeds will be used to remove and replace the WWTP's collection system piping and convert the retention system to an irrigational land application system.   

Joe Freeman, chief of the OWRB’s Financial Assistance Division, calculated that the Town’s customers will save an estimated $1,553,200 compared to traditional financing.
