I am pleased to announce a 2.185 million dollar low-interest rate loan for White Run Regional Municipal Authority’s Sludge Dewatering Project recently awarded by the Pennsylvania Infrastructure Investment Authority (PENNVEST).

WRRMA, which serves residents in Mt. Joy, Mt. Pleasant and Straban Townships in Adams County, sought the funding to help purchase and install a screw press at the existing treatment plant site and will include the construction of a new building to house the dewatering system. This project will assist in the management of waste, which will in turn benefit the health of the community and help to improve the operations of the WRRMA.

It’s estimated that the PENNVEST low-interest loan will provide the grant-equivalent of nearly 657 thousand dollars over the lifetime of the loan.

As we honor the legacy of America’s Founding generation during America250, we remember William Livingston of New Jersey — lawyer, patriot, and signer of the U.S. Constitution.

Livingston served as New Jersey’s first elected governor and played a key role in supporting the cause of independence during the Revolutionary War. Known for his intellect and strong advocacy for liberty and republican government, he helped shape the early foundations of the new nation.

At the same time, like many prominent figures of his era, Livingston’s legacy is complicated. While he spoke passionately about freedom and self-government, historical records show he also benefited from systems of inequality common in colonial America, including slaveholding and limited political inclusion.

Remembering the Founders honestly means recognizing both their contributions and their contradictions. Their achievements helped establish the nation, while their shortcomings remind us that the American story has always been a work in progress.

America250 — Honoring the Past. Shaping the Future.
