Press Release

OKLAHOMA CITY –The Mannford Public Works Authority (Authority) received approval for a $191,550 loan with 100% principal forgiveness Tuesday from the Oklahoma Water Resources Board (OWRB) to improve the Authority’s wastewater infrastructure.  Construction of upgrades and improvements to the wastewater system will be financed by the Oklahoma Clean Water State Revolving Fund (CWSRF).

The City of Mannford is moving forward with plans to address critical improvements at its retention lagoon facility. The project will focus on the planning and design of a new lift station and the installation of approximately 7,000 linear feet of 6-inch force main to replace the existing total retention lagoon and land application system. These upgrades will include all necessary appurtenances to enhance the facility’s efficiency and reliability for the community.

Lori Johnson, chief of the OWRB’s Financial Assistance Division, calculated that the Authority’s  customers will save an estimated $241,050 compared to traditional financing.
