I've seen no mention of this, so I'll bring it up. Many communities will qualify for various sources of funding to increase/improve the size of their wastewater treatment facilities. The narrative that "this cost is bore by the community alone" is not entirely accurate.

That's helpful for communities that have treatment plants but most rural communities don't have treatment plants and would have to add one. I'm not sure even with state aid most of those towns could justify building a treatment plant.
