WASHINGTON – U.S. Senator Bill Cassidy, M.D. (R-LA) today announced the City of Lake Charles will receive $2,945,000.00 from the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) for the Lake Charles Generators Project. The grants will fund the design, purchase, and installation of 10 permanent generators at the city’s sewer lift stations and one of its water treatment plants.

“The best way to prevent future devastation in Lake Charles is to put precautions in place like these generators,” said Dr. Cassidy. “This funding will help Lake Charles be prepared for the next storm.”
