A $40,000 grant has been awarded to the community of Keytesville to evaluate wastewater system improvements. The Missouri Department of Natural Resources has awarded a $40,000 Clean Water Engineering Report Grant to help cover engineering costs of evaluating wastewater system improvements. Keytesville will use the grant to identify wastewater system improvements needed to continue reliable service to the area, meet permit requirements, and reduce storm water infiltration into sewer collection pipes. The facility plan should be complete in November 2025.
