The city of Tallassee received a $9.7 million grant that will help modernize the city’s cast iron gas pipes.
The grant is a part of the Natural Gas Distribution Infrastructure Safety and Modernization program, which aims to help modernize infrastructure that has been around for decades and, in some cases, even nearly two centuries old.
“Multiple generations of kids and families there, our school administration, our teachers, and other guests were all there when the smell of gas started permeating throughout the building. Luckily, we narrowly avoided a problem and we were able to change locations,” she said.She said the city has spent over $650,000 over the last three years to work on old cast iron gas pipes. There are approximately 61 miles of gas lines and 35 miles of cast iron pipes across the city.
