Federal grant to help ensure clean RI beaches

The federal government wants to help ensure that Rhode Island’s beaches are clean and healthy.

The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency announced this afternoon that it will give a grant to the state health department tomorrow morning to pay for coastal beach monitoring. The agency has not disclosed the grant amount.

Governor Carcieri will be joined at the Narragansett Beach ceremony by local environmental leaders and a regional EPA administrator.
