N.D. (AP) — The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers is partnering with the North Dakota town of Cooperstown to build a new water line.

The $2.9 million project involves placing five miles of 8-inch PVC pipe from the Cooperstown wells to the town’s water treatment plant. The federal government is picking up $2.2 million of the cost under the corps’ environmental infrastructure assistance program.

Typical projects under the corps program include wastewater treatment, combined sewer overflow water supply, environmental restoration and surface water protection and development.

The Cooperstown project includes the design and construction of the proposed improvements.
