The Blackwater River Effluent Removal Project is planned, with a total anticipated cost of $20 million. The City of Milton plans to contribute $12 million from their budget, and the RESTORE Act Direct Component may provide up to $8 million for construction costs. This project is currently under review.

Contractors, suppliers, and service providers are encouraged to engage early to understand the project details as plans develop, before bids and permits are finalized. This early engagement can provide a competitive advantage.
