Company gives grants for green initiative

Tipmont REMC’s EnviroWatts program gave grants to three area nonprofits involved in green initiatives.

Tipmont’s program gave out $22,000 to Civic Theatre of Greater Lafayette, Wabash River Enhancement Corp. and The West Lafayette (WL) Tree Fund.

The Civic Theatre is using their $7,000 toward LED stage lighting. This lighting will cut its current power use in half. LED lighting consumes less electricity than the current system and will produce less heating, saving on air conditioning costs.

Wabash River Enhancement Corp. will purchase 100 rain barrels, stands, and downspout diverters for their watershed program with their $10,000. This program encourages landowners to capture and use rainwater rather than allowing polluted runoff to enter waterways. The barrels will be distributed in a cost-sharing program.

The WL Tree Fund will be purchasing and planting 50 trees in the Northwestern Heights neighborhood with $5,000. These will replace 40 ash trees along Summit Drive. Replacing ash trees is necessary due to the recent emerald ash borer infestation.

“This grant distribution brings the program’s total to 375,004 awarded in 93 grants since funding began in 2001,” said Tipmont REMC chief executive officer Tim McCarthy.
