Purpose:-Making Improvements to Copperhill Sewer Plant to comply with TDEC Regulations

Funding:-$200,000

The City of Copperhill certifies to the Tennessee Department of Economic and Community Development that Herbert Hood in his capacity as Mayor consents to accept the jurisdiction of the Federal Courts if an action is brought to enforce responsibilities in relation to the environmental review process and that these responsibilities have been satisfied. The Tennessee Department of Economic and Community Development (ECD) approval of the certification satisfies its responsibilities under NEPA and related laws and authorities.

The Tennessee Department of Economic and Community Development will accept objections to its release of funds and grantee certification for a period of fifteen days following the anticipated submission date or its actual receipt of the request (whichever is later) only if the objections are based on one of the following points:

Snodgrass Tennessee Tower, 10th Floor, 312 Eighth Avenue North, Nashville, Tennessee 37243-0405.
