The first ever New Markets Tax Credit Program funded project in American Samoa closed on November 30, 2018. The Project will substantially reduce the non-revenue water loss of 60% fresh drinking water. The project will improve water quality from the upper Pava’ia’i to Aoloau areas with over 550 homes and a population of 3,000+ by replacing approximately 1.5 miles of AC pipe and 1 mile of HDPE pipes with new PVCO pipes in the Pava’ai’i DMA System.
