As we post this article, our friend Jim Travers sent along this notice that was posted by Sandy Steuben of People of Albany United for Safe Energy (PAUSE) on the Environmental Justice list serve.  Of course the federal government under the jerk in the White House and his jerk party is notoriously inept and unstable and inclined to be not serious about fixing environmental problems, this program is probably meant to be some kind of graft.  But this shows that the money is indeed available to build new sewer lines if we look for it.
