Bean Station sewer project gets $1.5 million in state funding

Yahoo06-05-2025

BEAN STATION, Tenn. (WATE) — $1.5 million in state funding was approved for the Town of Bean Station to begin its sewer project.
The project will connect Bean Station to the city of Morristown's wastewater treatment facility. This aims to reduce costs for residents while ensuring more efficient, reliable service for the community. The funding comes from the Tennessee Department of Environment and Conservation's (TDEC) Water Regionalization Project.

'This project is a game-changer for growth in the Bean Station community, opening the door for new businesses, restaurants and opportunities,' said State Rep. Rick Eldridge. 'Local leaders have worked tirelessly to help secure this funding, and I'm deeply grateful to the General Assembly and TDEC for recognizing this need. I look forward to seeing the project break ground soon!'
This initiative's goal is to strengthen that state's arterial infrastructure. TDEC received more than $1.3 billion from the state's American Rescue Plan funds to administer grants like the one to Bean Station. The grants can be used for projects focusing on drinking water, wastewater and stormwater projects focused on regionalization, water reuse and resource protection. Regionalization is when a smaller utility system is consolidated into a larger network.

This is not the first time Bean Station has been given a grant from the state's American Rescue Plan funds. In April 2023, Bean Station was given a $3,949,472 grant to address critical system needs for several utility systems and develop an Asset Management Plan. The projects funded include improvements to the Wastewater Treatment Plant and collection system, and meter and water line replacements and extensions.

Sam Altman Says 2026 May Be a Big Year for AI

Sam Altman's OpenAI is at the center of an ambitious effort to remake the world of artificial intelligence while simultaneously turbocharging America's leading role in the developing technology behind it. Stargate, a collaboration of OpenAI, Oracle and SoftBank, is set to use a bankroll that could reach $500 billion to build massive installations across the US. Altman, 40, says the project's name stems from an early data center design that resembled the ring-shaped portal made famous in the eponymous movie and television series. After he spent many months selling the idea to prospective backers, Stargate started to come together last year. In this extended interview from The Circuit with Emily Chang, Altman reveals what he thinks this giant leap into AI infrastructure could mean for the technology, the industry and the world.
