Oregon Senators Ron Wyden and Jeff Merkley say the Confederated Tribes of Warm Springs will receive a $269,000 federal grant to repair its main water line. The $269,000 federal Housing and Urban Development’s Indian Community Development Block Grant from its Imminent Threat program assists tribes and Alaska Native villages with activities to improve, repair or restore safe and healthy environments in response to imminent threats. Wyden says the funds will help restore a dependable and safe water supply for the Warm Springs tribes. He also said he would continue to work to pass the Western Tribal Water Infrastructure Act to direct federal funds to tribes for their water infrastructure.
