Water Main Flushing
The City of Newaygo will be flushing water mains from 7:00 am-3:00 pm Monday thru Friday beginning April 7th and continuing through April 17th. Customers should be aware that there may be some discoloration in their water supply and the washing of clothes is not recommended during this time.
Notice-Water Service Line Replacement
The City of Newaygo will be replacing numerous water service lines throughout the City starting in March. These are lines that run from the water main in the road to the home or business. Under new State Laws, the State of Michigan requires this work to be completed. The goal of this project is to maintain the water quality in the City of Newaygo. The City will contact any resident or business that this may affect prior to work beginning.
Finding of No Significant Impact
Based on an Environmental Assessment (EA) of the City's project plan and any comments received from crosscutter agencies, EGLE has issued a Finding of No Significant Impact (FNSI) regarding historical, animal, plant, or environmental items for the City's proposed water main replacement on W. Wood St and replacement of water service lines throughout the City.
Any comments supporting or disagreeing with the preliminary decision of EGLE should be submitted to the Water Infrastructure Financing Section as noted in the FNSI (see link to FNSI below). EGLE will not take action on a project for 30 calendar days from the date (4/17/2024) of the EA publication. In the absence of substantive comments during the 30-day timeframe, our preliminary decision will become final and the applicant will be eligible to receive loan assistance.
