Nemaha RWD 1

Rural Water 1, Nemaha County volunteers reduced costs by $340,000
Volunteer workers in Nemaha County Rural Water District No. 1 at Bern have reduced costs by nearly $340,000 on a recently completed improvement project. The savings result from volunteers putting in "sweat equity" to install the project compared to the engineer's project estimate based on conventional bidding and installation. The Nemaha RWD 1 project was completed under the KAN STEP program that is funded through the Kansas Dept. of Commerce & Housing. KAN STEP is the acronym for Kansas Small Towns Environment Program.
