The Florida Department of Environmental Protection has determined that the City of Lake Helen project to replace a diesel engine in poor condition with a new generator for emergency power, and an upgrade to the controls associated with operating the water system will not adversely affect the environment. The total cost of the project is estimated to be $189,000. The project may qualify for a Drinking Water State Revolving Fund loan composed of federal funds and state funds.
