The Tennessee Department of Environment and Conservation (DOEC) released a revised Finding of No Significant Impact (FNSI) Amendment for public review concerning DeKalb Utility District plans to construct its new raw water intake structure and raw water pump station Monday. While the total project cost presented in a previous Environmental Assessment (EA) was $12,000,000. The DUD has requested a $4,000,000 loan increase to cover the increased project costs resulting from bid overruns, and a new EA was required.
