UMJA would like to extend our sincere appreciation to State Senator Tracy Pennycuick, PA State Rep. Milou Mackenzie, and the East Greenville Borough, Pennsburg Borough, and Borough of Red Hill for their support of our grant application for the Authority’s Manhole Rehabilitation Project.

Their support and partnership are greatly appreciated and play an important role in helping UMJA continue to invest in our wastewater infrastructure. This project will allow the Authority to rehabilitate aging manholes, reduce inflow and infiltration into the sanitary sewer system, and improve the long-term reliability of our collection system.

We are fortunate to have state and local leaders who recognize the importance of investing in critical infrastructure and supporting projects that benefit the communities we serve.

Thank you for your continued partnership and support of UMJA and our community!
