Washington PWB awards $5.1 million for infrastructure projects
The Washington State Public Works Board (PWB) voted to award more than $5 million to eight projects during its board meeting on April 3, 2026. The awards will support jurisdictions in Clallam, Clark, Grays Harbor, Island, Jefferson, Pacific and Pend Oreille counties as they recover from unforeseen emergencies, protect water quality and provide reliable public works infrastructure.
“Clark Regional Wastewater District continues to rely on PWB financing to deliver critical infrastructure while keeping costs manageable for residents and businesses. Access to low-interest PWB loans has saved district ratepayers an estimated $7 million in recent years,” said David Logan, finance director and treasurer at Clark Regional Wastewater District. “The district plans to invest more than $400 million in wastewater infrastructure over the next 20 years and without affordable state financing, there will be increased pressure on utility rates for families or projects will be delayed altogether.”
