BATH — The city of Bath has been awarded a $42,000 grant for a stormwater management study.
Bath will conduct a study to assess downtown stormwater runoff patterns and how they can be managed to mitigate the risk of flash-flooding and the volume of pollutants that are discharged into the Kennebec River. The study will include an examination of management options and the development of conceptual designs for infrastructure improvements. The grant comes from the Maine Department of Agriculture, Conservation and Forestry, which awarded $186,280 for five projects along the Maine coast, including the Bath project.
