We selected a City of Bremerton, Washington, project for review. Background The City received a $6.06 million loan from the State of Washington under the Drinking Water State Revolving Fund program. The loan terms include a $60,000 loan fee and 100 percent forgiveness on the $6 million principal funded by the Recovery Act. The purpose of the project is to design and construct an Ultraviolet Treatment and Chlorine Disinfection Facility. American Recovery and Reinvestment Act Site Inspection of the Ultraviolet Treatment and Chlorine Disinfection Facility Project, City of Bremerton, Washington What We Found We conducted a site inspection at the City of Bremerton, Washington, in June 2009. As part of our inspection, we toured the future site of the Ultraviolet Treatment and Chlorine Disinfection Facility, conducted interviews of City representatives, and reviewed documentation related to Recovery Act requirements. Based upon our site inspection, nothing came to our attention that would require action from the City.
