The multi-million dollar U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) project announced Wednesday should help thousands of local residents.

“They’ve been doing this with duct tape and bailing wire for as long as I’ve been in office, and they’ve been screaming out the need for this money,” said Congressman Matt Cartwright.
