Another town is looking to add ozone for drinking water treatment to meet new EPA regulations. Manistique, MI will add ozone water treatment as part of a two step improvement to their water treatment plant. The funds will come from the US Department of Agricultures Rural Development (RD) fund. The RD funding is 75% grant and 25% low interest loan.
An increasing number of communities are beginning to view ozone as an important option for meeting increasingly stringent EPA drinking water standards.
