ach day, assistance from the U.S. Department of Agriculture 

(USDA) makes a difference in the lives of the proud men and 

women who live, work, and raise their families in rural America. USDA supports the housing, community facilities, businesses, infrastructure, and renewable energy investments that 

help to make rural America a place of opportunity, innovation, and economic 

growth. 

Over the past 5 years, the Obama Administration and USDA have 

worked tirelessly to bolster economic development in our rural communities. 

In fiscal year 2013 alone, USDA’s Rural Development provided more than 

$33.3 billion in assistance through its more than 40 loan, grant, and technical assistance programs. The 

2014 Farm Bill brings renewed support for community economic development, including financing for 

investments in broadband, telecommunications, distance learning and telemedicine, entrepreneurship, 

and business development and growth. 

I am pleased to share with you the 2013 Rural Development Progress Report, which highlights how 

our investments have helped rural Americans finance new homes, business growth, and economic 

development over the past year. In this report, you will learn about projects like the “Soldiers to 

Civilians Project,” a new program in rural west Tennessee, funded in part by USDA, that give local 

veterans the training and skills they need to get jobs in the field of precision agriculture. 

The stories in this report help illustrate how USDA Rural Development programs provide 

key support in the rural economy and how they make meaningful, lasting investments in rural 

communities. The men and women entrepreneurs, including returning veterans, who operate small 

businesses in rural communities help support a healthy and thriving rural economy that benefits all 

Americans—no matter where they live.

Sincerely,

Thomas J. Vilsack

trong rural communities are the key to a stronger America.” 

With this statement, President Barack Obama captured the core 

mission of USDA Rural Development. To make good on that 

commitment, the President and Secretary Vilsack have charged 

our Mission Area to help rural America prepare for the global 

challenges of the 21st century. These challenges include feeding billions of 

people, addressing climate change and producing energy from new sources, 

making investments in rural America, and strengthening the Nation’s overall 

economy.

 With a portfolio of more than $193 billion in loans and loan guarantees, USDA Rural Development 

is making lasting investments in rural communities through investments in core community 

infrastructure, such as developing or building: improved telecommunications services; clean water 

supplies; safe, affordable housing; hospitals, clinics and schools, and providing the technical assistance 

and financing for business creation and expansion. 

Today, we are strengthening rural America not only by helping individual communities’ define 

their strengths and opportunities, but also by developing regional strategies and forging new strategic 

partners so that one community or program can complement and draw upon the resources of another 

to create jobs and strengthen economies. We are working directly with local governments, economic 

development districts, and community-based organizations to help strengthen regional collaboration 

and create opportunities for new jobs across rural regions.

Our goal is to provide rural communities with sensible economic growth opportunities that are 

durable, strategic, and centered on creating long-term prosperity. For example, Rural Development is 

a key agent in USDA’s Strike Force for Rural Growth and Opportunity initiative, an effort to increase 

coordination and leverage partnerships in rural areas of concentrated poverty to ensure that every 

community has equal access to USDA programs. The Strike Force initiative has been instrumental in 

targeting assistance to American Indian and Alaska Native communities and is being extended now to 

the Appalachian Region.

Rural Development’s capacity and priorities support President Obama’s vision of an America 

that provides for the economic well-being of all Americans, offering opportunities for innovation 

and growth. What urban America needs, rural America has in abundance: energy, food, and a strong 

manufacturing base.

Despite the fiscal challenges that USDA faced in 2013, USDA Rural Development invested more 

than $33.3 billion for a variety of rural housing, business, community development, and infrastructure 

projects in fiscal year 2013. USDA is the only Federal Department with the primary mission of serving 

rural areas, and USDA Rural Development has a field office structure in every State that helps us target 

and serve local communities' specific needs. 

The personal relationships that our employees have with local community leaders have allowed 

us to deliver our programs with great success. I am proud of our employees’ service to rural America, 

proud of our achievements, and pleased to share many of the individual stories of how our programs 

have touched the lives of so many rural people over the course of the year.

At USDA Rural Development, we look forward to continuing our mission and continuing to 

contribute our resources toward helping rural Americans and their communities thrive in the years to 

come.

alleviate poverty through economic development 

and job creation. 

One key area where Rural Development has 

been successful in using the Strike Force initiative 

to deliver assistance is in American Indian 

and Alaska Native communities, where tribal 

residents have unique challenges and needs, but 

have also experienced difficulty obtaining help 

through Federal programs.

n March 2013, USDA

States. StrikeForce started in 2010 as 

a pilot project in selected regions in 

Arkansas, Georgia, and Mississippi. 

The primary goal of the StrikeForce initiative is 

to address persistent poverty by increasing partnerships with rural communities and leveraging 

community resources in underserved areas.

StrikeForce was expanded in 2011 to include 

Colorado, New Mexico, and Nevada. The 

additional States added in 2013 are Alabama,

hull pea processing equipment the Arkansas Delta Seeds of 

Change (ADSOC) purchased with a USDA Rural Development 

Rural Business Enterprise Grant (RBEG) on March 5, 2013. USDA, 

in partnership with international aid organization Heifer International and various for-profit and non-profit organizations, put in 

motion the “Seeds of Change Implementation Plan” to use sustainable agriculture to build food systems in the Arkansas Delta. 

The program has evolved into the ADSOC Initiative, which assists 

producers with technical assistance for crop production, management, harvesting, food security, value added products and 

marketing options and provides access to specialized production 

and marketing equipment.

Business owner Laurie Jo Bennett shows off some of her new canned 

produce in her store in Norman Park, Colquitt County, GA. Colquitt 

County is designated as a StrikeForce area. Bennett secured a USDA 

Rural Development Rural Business Enterprise Grant (RBEG) to help 

market the products of her business, Laurie Jo’s Southern Style 

Canning. Consumers may now purchase Laurie Jo’s products in Whole 

Foods, Earth Fare, and Kroger stores across 20 States. The USDA grant 

has enabled Laurie Jo's to employ 26 people.

than 74,000 businesses create or save more than 

375,000 jobs and saved or generated an estimated 

9.8 million megawatt hours of energy. Cumula-

tively, the agency has provided about $9 billion in 

assistance since 2009 to support business develop-

spur job creation and economic development in 

rural areas. The following are highlights of how 

RBS helped meet the financial and energy-related 

needs of rural America in 2013.

Missouri Biomass Firm Receives $500,000 for 

Field-to-Furnace Solution

IIn October 2012, Columbia Water and Light, the 

utility company in Columbia, Missouri, conducted 

a test firing at the municipal coal power plant us-

ing miscanthus (grass) pellets. Although the pel-

lets mixed well with coal, dust from the handling 

system degraded the pellets. Additionally, pellets 

stored outdoors became unusable when water 

seeped through protective covers.

Enginuity Worldwide, a biofuels company based 

in Columbia, MO, has solved many of the prob-

lems associated with miscanthus pellet use, 

such as those that Columbia Water and Light 

encountered during its test, with a pellet that is 

97 percent durable and water-resistant. Using a 

trademarked process called eCARBTM, Enginu-

ity’s pellet is shaped and sized to work well when 

mixed with coal and requires only minimal retro-

fits to plant handling systems. Another benefit is 

that the pellet is produced from renewable feed-

stocks, such as corn stover and switchgrass, which 

represents a possible value-added opportunity 

for Missouri farmers to increase the revenue they 

derive from their croplands.

USDA provided Enginuity with a $500,000 

Rural Energy for America Program (REAP) grant 

that will be used, along with private funding, 

to help the company develop a solid biomass 

fuel production facility. REAP is a USDA loan

S guarantee and grant program available to 

agricultural producers and rural small businesses 

for renewable energy systems and energy 

efficiency improvements. The company plans to 

use this grant to produce eCARBTM-engineered 

fuel for testing and market commercialization. 

Upon completion, the project is expected to 

produce 18,000 tons of biomass fuel per year 

that will be sold to municipal utilities for electric 

power generation and to create 20 new jobs in 

central Missouri.

Enginuity’s eCARBTM technology potentially 

could extend the life of existing coal-fired plants 

by providing an alternative means to comply 

with new emission standards. The technology 

will also help farmers produce home-grown 

renewable energy from their fields and increase 

their income.

USDA Increases Employment Prospects for 

Disabled People in Wisconsin

In October 2013, Easter Seals Wisconsin 

received a $50,000 Rural Business Opportunity 

Grant (RBOG) that will be used over a 2-year 

period to provide technical assistance to people 

with disabilities. The grant will help create 

additional employment opportunities and 

improve economic conditions in a 14-county 

area in northeast Wisconsin. Some people with 

disabilities have started businesses in the area 

such as restaurants, construction companies, 

automotive repair shops, and painting 

companies that are providing jobs for additional 

members of the community.

“This award will help us meet the everincreasing demand for technical assistance for 

business development by entrepreneurs with 

disabilities,” said Christine Fessler, Easter Seals 

Wisconsin’s president and chief executive 

officer. “We look forward to this opportunity 

to empower people to achieve full economic 

participation in their rural communities.”

Easter Seals Wisconsin is one of 25 

organizations nationwide, and the only one in 

Wisconsin, that received 2013 Rural Business 

Opportunity Grant funds. The RBOG program 

promotes sustainable economic development 

in rural communities that have exceptional 

needs, due to poverty, job losses, or other 

circumstances, through business development, 

economic development planning, and training.

Business and Industry (B&I) Loan Guarantee 

Helps Startup Biobased Company

Laurel Biocomposites, LLC, a Nebraska company 

that started in 2007, wanted to become the first 

company in the United States to produce new 

“green” products for use in the plastics industry. 

The company converts distillers’ grain, an ethanol 

byproduct, into its trademarked Bio-ResTM pellet and powder products that can replace and/

or enhance petrochemical-based resins traditionally used in plastics manufacturing. The company 

needed funds to purchase equipment and startup 

capital to begin operations.

USDA partnered with the Security Bank in 

Laurel to provide a $5 million B&I loan guarantee 

that helped the company purchase the equipment 

it needed and provide working capital for the 

first year of operation. The company also received 

outside funds to support the project.

Today, Laurel Biocomposites 

is operating one production line 

and is expected to begin full-scale 

production in 2014, which will 

increase its annual capacity to 48 

million pounds of finished bioresin product. Currently, there 

are seven workers at the plant in 

Laurel. When full-scale production 

begins, the company plans to 

have 13 to 15 workers on the plant 

floor. The company held a ribboncutting ceremony and open house 

in September 2013 to celebrate its 

achievements.

USDA Partners With Service Organizations To Help Veterans Find Agriculture Careers

Veterans returning home from overseas tours-of-duty face many challenges as they readjust to civilian life, 

and one of the most daunting ones is 

finding employment. In 2012, a new 

program — the Soldiers to Civilians 

(S2C) Project — was started in rural 

west Tennessee to give local veterans 

the training and skills they need to 

enter into the field of precision agriculture.

"Precision agriculture" is a farm management 

process where producers use advanced 

technologies such as satellites and the Global 

Positioning System to pinpoint, measure, and 

respond to inter- and intra-field variability in 

their crops. Precision agriculture helps producers 

save money because they can target inputs 

such as nutrients and fertilizer only to those 

sections that need them. It also helps producers 

practice sustainable agriculture and protect the 

environment through the reduced, targeted 

inputs.

Thanks to grant assistance from USDA, 

project leaders will now be able to expand the 

S2C program beyond west Tennessee to help 

even more veterans in the rural delta areas 

of east Arkansas and west Mississippi. The 

expansion was funded, in part, through USDA’s 

Rural Business Enterprise Grant program, 

8 USDA Rural Development Progress Report 2013 USDA Rural Development Progress Report 2013 Rural Development Progress Report 2013 9

which promotes development of small 

and emerging businesses in rural 

areas. The S2C project was the idea of 

Tennessee’s Crockett Policy Institute. The 

grant recipient, the Memphis Bioworks 

Foundation, has teamed with the Institute 

on the S2C project and the grant that 

will enable S2C to expand into 110 more 

counties.

Veterans are excellent candidates 

for precision agriculture because their 

military training exposes them to similar 

advanced technology systems.

Value-Added Producer Grants Support 

Local and Regional Food Projects

Value-Added Producer Grants (VAPGs) 

are an important element of USDA's 

“Know Your Farmer, Know Your Food” 

initiative, which coordinates USDA's 

work to support local and regional food 

systems. In 2013, USDA’s VAPG program 

funded an array of projects involving locally produced and marketed foods. The 

foods include cheese, reduced-cholesterol 

dairy products, produce, packaged poultry, and pork and beef products, as well as 

a variety of processed or prepared foods 

from locally grown fruits and vegetables.

For example, the Wisconsin Food Hub 

Cooperative in Madison, WI, will use a 

$150,000 VAPG as working capital to help 

start a regional fresh produce food hub 

and packinghouse to improve producers’ 

access to wholesale markets in the local 

farm economy and create private-sector 

jobs. The food hub will aggregate local 

produce sold under the "Wisconsin Farmed" 

brand.

Food hubs are broadly defined as facilities 

that manage, aggregate, store, process, distribute, 

or market locally and regionally produced food.

Assisting Rural Cooperatives in Minnesota

RBS awarded Minnesota’s Agricultural Utilization Research Institute (AURI) with a $68,300 

Rural Cooperative Development Grant (RCDG) in 

2013 so AURI could help develop additional rural 

cooperatives in the State. The work will build 

on AURI’s previous efforts to assist and develop 

cooperatives through the RCDG program.

AURI will use the 2013 RCDG grant to 

provide applied research, scientific assistance, 

project facilitation, marketing, and economic 

feasibility and organizational development 

services to new or existing cooperatives for 

local foods marketing and distribution, dairy 

processing, livestock feed processing, food 

processing, and renewable energy.
he Rural Housing Service (RHS) 

finances new or improved singleand multi-family housing for 

individuals and families in rural 

communities. In 2013, more than 

7,100 families became single-family homeowners 

through direct loans from RHS totaling $827.1 

million. Under the single-family guaranteed loan 

program, more than 162,900 families were able to 

buy or keep their homes through loans totaling 

$22.3 billion. All told, in 2013, the agency invested 

more than $23.4 billion in direct loans, guaranteed 

loans, grants, and technical assistance to provide 

affordable, safe housing for rural families. In both 

people and dollars, Fiscal Year 2013 was the most 

successful year on record in the 63-year history of 

USDA’s single-family housing programs. These 

programs serve the most people and provide the 

most funds in rural America of any USDA Rural 

Development program. Since the agency made its 

first housing loan in 1950, more than 3.69 million 

rural people have received housing assistance, for 

a total of nearly $205 billion, through the singlefamily programs.

In 2013, RHS's multi-family housing programs 

served more than 523,000 families in more than 

1,600 apartment developments across America. 

Through the agency’s multi-family housing 

programs, rental assistance subsidy, which helps 

low-income tenants afford their rent payments, 

currently is provided to almost 280,000 lowincome residents throughout rural America. RHS 

also provides a rent subsidy housing voucher 

to more than 3,500 families that enables them 

to remain in affordable housing even after the 

property is no longer financed by USDA.

RHS also helps rural communities finance, 

construct, enlarge, or improve schools, fire 

stations, libraries, hospitals and medical clinics, 

industrial parks, and many other community 

facilities. The agency invested more than 

$1.4 billion in direct loans, guaranteed loans, 

and grants for more than 1,000 community 

infrastructure projects and essential rural 

community facilities in Fiscal Year 2013. Among

of the White House’s “We Can’t Wait Initiative,” 

and an all-time record for the community facilities

USDA Overhauls Single Family Housing Guaran-

teed Loan Program

In December 2013, USDA announced changes 

to RHS's loan guarantee program to strengthen 

rural housing markets, increase the availability 

of rural home loans, and spur new home 

construction. The changes take effect September 1, 

2014, and include:

•	 Increased lender eligibility. Any lender 

supervised and regulated by the Federal 

Deposit Insurance Corporation, the 

National Credit Union Administration, 

the Office of the Comptroller of the 

Currency, Federal Reserve Banks, or 

the Federal Housing Finance Board 

may underwrite loans. This will enable 

many small community banks and credit 

unions, which are currently ineligible, to 

participate in the program.

•	 Construction-to-permanent financing. 

This new feature will encourage new 

construction in rural areas by providing 

loan guarantees when construction begins. 

The former regulation permitted only 

“take-out” financing once construction 

was completed. The new “constructionto-perm” feature, also known in the 

mortgage industry as “single close” 

financing, encourages homebuilders, 

lenders, and borrowers in rural areas to 

build new homes.

The changes will help create jobs, enable 

more people to participate in the program, add 

significant capital to rural areas, and give people 

more opportunities to make financial decisions 

that lead to greater future prosperity. The changes 

will also make housing loans more available in 

underserved communities, such as those targeted 

by USDA's StrikeForce initiative to help alleviate 

rural poverty.

to worthy organizations to construct 16 farm 

labor housing properties with 538 units to provide clean, safe, affordable apartments to rural 

farm labor residents. Finally, RHS also provided 

almost $1.12 billion in rental assistance in 2013 to 

help more than 280,000 very low-income tenants 

living in apartments financed by USDA Rural 

Development afford their rent payments. The 

total amount of multi-family housing assistance 

provided in 2013 was over $1.23 billion in direct 

loans, guarantees, grants, and rental assistance. 

Cumulatively, RHS funds supported construction or improvement of more than 5,000 units of 

multi-family housing in 2013.

Today, more than 440,000 rental units in 

almost 14,900 developments across the country 

are financed through USDA multi-family 

housing direct loan programs, providing clean 

and adequate apartment-style housing for more 

than 682,000 people who otherwise could not 

afford it. Nearly half of RHS’s multi-family 

direct loan housing portfolio provides shelter for 

elderly residents, giving them the opportunity to 

live in dignity in their own communities. About 

71 percent of these tenants are single people 

who are heads of households, and 59 percent 

are elderly or disabled. The average annual 

income of tenants in USDA direct loan-financed 

developments is about $12,000.

The center will provide access to care, 

treatment for diabetes and obesity, nutrition 

education, and programs to address the lack of 

exercise, which is of particular concern in tribal 

communities. It will also offer an expanded 

suite of programs to address mental health and 

substance abuse.

USDA Provides More Than $1.23 Billion in MultiFamily Housing Assistance

In 2013, RHS provided more than $50.1 million in 

multi-family housing direct loan assistance to help 

developers construct or improve more than 1,300 

units of apartment-style housing in rural areas. 

The agency also provided more than $52.2 million 

in guarantees to back loans made by participating 

private-sector lenders to construct or rehabilitate 

more than 2,060 units of multi-family housing. 

Additionally, RHS awarded more than $12.67

RHS Expands Refinancing Program 

To Help More Rural Homeowners

In January 2013, USDA announced 

plans to add 15 more States and the 

Commonwealth of Puerto Rico to a pilot program that enables current USDA home loan borrowers to save money on housing by refinancing 

their mortgages with lower interest rates.

Expansion of this program will help more 

rural borrowers reduce their monthly payments 

and ease their financial burdens. As our 

economy continues to recover, this program 

will enable rural families with USDA-financed 

homes to take advantage of historically low 

interest rates.

The initiative, unveiled in 2012, initially 

included borrowers in 19 States hit the hardest 

by the downturn in the housing market. To date, 

almost 4,000 rural borrowers have benefited 

from the refinancing program. The loans in the 

refinancing pilot program portfolio total nearly 

$453 million.

The pilot expands ongoing efforts to help 

rural homeowners holding loans made or 

guaranteed by USDA. In 2010, USDA established 

an aggressive guaranteed loan modification 

policy to help homeowners who are delinquent 

on their mortgages. These homeowners can 

lower their monthly payments through a loan 

modification that reschedules the payments over 

a term of up to 40 years, lowers the interest rate, 

or both. RHS also has a "Mortgage Recovery 

Advance" program that provides guaranteed 

lenders up to 12 months of mortgage payments 

on behalf of borrowers who have fallen behind on 

payment due to job loss or other hardships.

The refinancing pilot is being expanded to 

include Alaska, Arkansas, Colorado, Idaho, 

Kansas, Missouri, Montana, North Dakota, 

Oklahoma, South Dakota, Texas, Utah, 

Washington, West Virginia, Wisconsin, and 

Puerto Rico. These States have a high proportion 

of counties with persistent poverty rates of at least 

20 percent in each of the last four U.S. censuses. 

Puerto Rico has had a poverty rate of at least 

45 percent in recent years, according to the U.S. 

Census Bureau.

New Health Care Facility for Mississippi Band of 

Choctaw Indians

In September 2013, the Mississippi Band of Choctaw Indians broke ground on its new, $55 million 

Choctaw Health Center, funded through a partnership between USDA, the Department of Health 

and Human Services, and private sector lenders. 

RHS Community Facilities staff facilitated the 

partnership to support the tribal leaders’ efforts 

to replace their existing health care facility, which 

is outmoded and no longer meets patients’ needs.

n Fiscal Year 2013, USDA Rural 

Development’s Rural Utilities 

Service (RUS) provided more than 

$305 million to provide new or im-

proved broadband service in rural 

areas, including remote, underserved locales. 

The funds will result in new or upgraded broad-

band service for about 120,000 rural households, 

businesses, and community institutions once 

the projects are completed. In today’s economy, 

high-speed broadband access is as vital to the eco-

nomic fortunes of rural America as RUS’s original 

mission to provide electricity to rural America 

was in the 1930s and '40s.

In 2013, RUS provided more than $1.3 billion 

in loan and grant assistance for water and/or 

waste disposal system improvements in rural 

communities. RUS also provided more than $4.9 

billion in electric loans to electric utilities in rural 

America to meet the power needs of 8.7 million 

customers served and enable the utilities to 

support and enhance the rural electric grid.

Recovery Act-Funded Wireless Internet for Okla-

homa’s Choctaw Nation

The Choctaw Nation of Oklahoma is rich in cul-

tural pride, identity, and history, but its remote 

location has severely limited the Tribe’s economic 

development opportunities. Pine Telephone 

Company (PTC) was awarded a Broadband Ini-

tiatives Program grant, made available through 

the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act, so 

that the company can deliver affordable broad-

band service to portions of this rural, remote and 

economically disadvantaged region in southeast 

Oklahoma.

During World War II, the Choctaw Nation 

of Oklahoma aided the U.S. military through 

“Code Talking” — relaying messages for the 

military using the native Choctaw language — to 

prevent enemy forces from intercepting military 

secrets. The Choctaw Nation was recognized for 

its patriotism again in 2008, when the Secretary 

of Defense awarded the tribe the Employer 

Support Freedom Award, the highest recognition 

to employers that support their workers who 

are serving in the National Guard and Reserve. 

Despite the Choctaw Nation’s record of service 

on behalf of the nation, the local economies of 

Choctaw communities have suffered. The five 

counties on tribal lands that will be served by 

Pine Telephone all have unemployment rates that 

soar above the State average, and a substantial 

proportion of residents are living below the 

poverty line.

PTC spent years testing broadband 

technologies that would offer reliable Internet 

service to residents of this remote region and 

determined that advanced 3G wireless technology 

presented the most viable solution. The system, 

designed to be scalable and cost-effective, will 

accommodate technology upgrades for years to 

come.

PTC’s system will serve nearly 5,000 

households, 10 school districts, and 12 volunteer 

fire departments and ambulance services. With 

reliable, high-speed wireless access, the region 

will be able to overcome geographic isolation 

to stimulate the sustainable economic growth 

that it needs. Offering quality Internet access to 

key community institutions, like schools and 

public safety bodies, will mean better educational 

opportunities, enhanced health care, and public 

safety for residents.

In addition to these benefits for Choctaw 

Nation members, the project has created more 

than 150 jobs over the multi-year construction 

period. Most of the project was completed by the 

end of 2013.

South Carolina Water and Sewer Company Con-

USDA has a long-standing partnership with the 

Breezy Hill Water and Sewer Company in Gran-

provided more than $5.4 million in loans to help 

the utility build, improve, and expand its water 

system. Breezy Hill’s system has about 225 miles 

of distribution pipes, 12 water storage tanks, and 

13 wells.

The Breezy Hill water district is located in 

Aiken County, part of the old “textile belt.” Since 

the 1990s, county leaders have been working to 

attract more business and manufacturers to the 

area due to the loss of textile plants and jobs. The 

county built an industrial park in 1993 within

Breezy Hill’s water district that is bringing 

jobs to the area. For example, Bridgestone/

Firestone built a 500-acre facility and plant 

there in 1995 that brought 600 jobs to the 

area and still operates today.

In 2009, Breezy Hill applied through 

the Recovery Act for additional assistance 

from USDA to construct a new water 

plant and build a major high-service 

distribution line as the backbone of the 

water distribution system. USDA provided 

the utility with a Recovery Act loan for 

more than $7.1 million and a grant of more 

than $1.9 million. The new plant started 

operations in August 2013. It has sufficient 

capacity to ensure that Breezy Hill will be able 

to meet customers’ water needs well into the 

future.

Additionally, the water treatment plant 

produces 4.7 million gallons of water each 

day, making it possible for companies like 

Bridgestone Corporation to expand. Bridgestone 

invested $1.2 billion in a project to expand its 

existing facility and build a new one in the 

county industrial park. The new facilities opened 

in 2012 and brought 850 new jobs to the area. 

Construction of a new parkway is expected 

to bring even more growth to the Breezy Hill 

community. MTU Detroit Diesel is also building 

a manufacturing facility in the industrial park 

that will provide 100 more new jobs. Breezy 

Hill Water and Sewer officials are reaching out 

to several other manufacturers interested in 

relocating to the area about their water needs, 

and they hope to attract even more business and 

jobs to the area.

Community Connect Program Improves Broadband Access, Public Safety in Rural Ohio

Broadband service in Stafford, Ohio was slow 

and unreliable. Only available via satellite, the 

connection speed depended on the weather. On 

cloudy days, there often was no Internet access 

at all. Slow connection speeds meant that local 

business owners and residents were unable to 

work with large data sets, high resolution images, or anything else requiring high bandwidth 

for access.

In 2011, Crystal Broadband Networks, 

Inc., received a Community Connect Grant for 

$570,800 to provide high-speed broadband in 

Stafford. One of the key purposes of the grant was 

to allow faster emergency response in the town, 

which frequently experiences severe weather.

The town’s new Community Connect Center 

opened for business in the summer of 2013. The 

center provides residents with new computers 

with high-speed broadband access. Service is free 

for the next 2 years.

The new broadband network built by Crystal 

Broadband has significantly improved the 

quality of life in the community. For example, 

Stafford resident Levi Morris attends law school 

in Philadelphia and spends his summer breaks 

at home. Previously, when his school presented 

him with an opportunity to work on a law project 

over the summer, the slow Internet connection 

made the work difficult. Now, he can use the 

Community Center computers and the faster 

broadband connection to easily complete his 

assignments.

To address Stafford’s issues with severe 

weather, Crystal Broadband has included 

technology that allows town officials to send 

and receive virtual, real-time severe weather 

warnings, which will help improve response 

times during emergencies. Free Internet service 

is being provided to the town’s volunteer fire 

department for the next 2 years.

Businesses in Stafford have been given 

a tremendous boost by the new broadband 

connection. It will help protect residents’ health 

and safety as well as increase family members’ 

ability to stay connected.

 “The Community Connect Grant program 

was created with villages like Stafford – and 

people like Levi – in mind,” Rural Development 

Deputy Under Secretary Doug O’Brien said at 

the Community Center grand opening. “This is 

the modern-day equivalent of what rural electric 

service meant to our grandparents: impacting 

health and safety, enhancing local economies, 

and connecting loved ones through technology.”

Energy Efficiency Program Will Lower Costs for 

Consumers, Reduce Greenhouse Gas Emissions

In December 2013, USDA announced new steps 

to help consumers save money on their energy 

bills in partnership with rural electric cooperatives. RUS will provide rural electric cooperatives up to $250 million to lend to business and 

residential customers for energy efficiency 

improvements and renewable energy systems.

By promoting energy savings in rural areas, 

the Energy Efficiency and Loan Conservation 

Program is another way that USDA is 

supporting President Obama's Climate Action 

Plan. The program will help build a cleaner 

and more sustainable domestic energy sector 

for future generations by reducing barriers to 

investment in energy efficiency — potentially 

cutting people's energy bills in the process.

Funding will be provided to rural electric 

cooperatives and utilities – most of which 

already have energy efficiency programs in 

place – that will then re-lend the money to 

help homeowners or businesses make energy 

efficiency improvements. The loans may be used 

for energy audits; upgrades to heating, lighting, 

and insulation; and conversions to more efficient 

or renewable energy sources.

USDA Announces Completion of 500th Recovery 

Act Water Project

In August 2013, Agriculture Secretary Tom Vilsack announced completion of the 500th water 

and wastewater project funded under the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act. To date, 

the Recovery Act has brought improved water 

and wastewater services to nearly 1.7 million 

rural residents. These projects have created jobs, 

stimulated local economies, and helped ensure 

that rural communities have the modern, up-todate infrastructure they need to continue being 

great places in which to live and work.

The Ozark Mountain Regional Public Water 

Authority Treatment Plant in Lead Hill, AR, 

received $62 million in Recovery Act funds 

to construct 120 miles of water pipeline, nine 

pumping stations, and six elevated water tanks in 

rural northwest Arkansas. The recently completed 

project is the culmination of years of work to 

address the insufficient quantity of water and 

poor quality of groundwater supplies in this part 

of the State. The counties served by the new water 

system consistently rank among the poorest in the 

region.

USDA Finances Virginia’s First Large-Scale Biomass Electricity Plant

In November 2013, USDA celebrated a historic 

energy landmark in southern Virginia: the startup 

of a new 49.9 megawatt renewable energy plant. 

USDA, in partnership with the Manassas-based 

Northern Virginia Electric Cooperative (NOVEC) 

and NOVI Energy, helped to finance this first 

such large-scale endeavor in the State to produce 

electricity using biomass.

The November ribbon-cutting ceremony 

and tour of the facility capped off 2 years of 

construction to complete the facility. The Rural 

Utilities Service provided a $90 million, long-term 

loan for the plant. The total cost of the project is 

about $178 million.

The new plant is located on a 104-acre site in 

the Halifax County Industrial Park in southern 

Virginia and will produce electricity using waste 

wood fuel that is renewable. "Reclaimed water" 

from the local water authority will be used to cool 

the plant. The power produced at the new plant 

is expected to meet approximately 6 percent of 

NOVEC’s future wholesale power needs from 

2014 through 2030. By using wood chips as fuel, 

the plant will provide enough electricity to power 

about 16,000 area homes. The new plant will 

also provide a renewable energy source for its 

consumers, and it supports the State’s cooperative 

efforts to meet the Virginia renewable energy goal 

of 15 percent by 2025. The new facility, along with 

the timber reclamation work to furnish waste 

wood for the plant, is expected to provide more 

than 60 new full-time jobs in the region.

he impact of USDA Rural Develop

-

ment's programs is visible in almost 

any rural community in California. 

The following stories illustrate the 

ways that the agency helped ru-

ral residents and community leaders through its 

housing, business, cooperative, community, and 

infrastructure development programs in 2013.

USDA Helps Latino Family Becomes First-Time 

Homeowners

When Juan Reyes Guerrero and Fanny Montoya 

received a notice from the Monterey County 

Housing Authority that their income was too high 

to stay in their apartment complex in Castroville, 

it was bittersweet. For the past 16 years, the fam-

ily had called the Paseo de Las Rosas apartments 

home. The 48-unit complex offered the couple's 

three children a safe, stable environment in which 

to grow up.

Although the family was sad to leave, the 

change helped them achieve a dream they 

had never thought possible – homeownership. 

Guerrero and Montoya worked with American 

Pacific Mortgage Corporation to apply for Rural 

Development's home loan guarantee program, 

which finances homes for low- to moderateincome families. They were approved, and in 

March 2013 the family moved into their new 

home in nearby Salinas.

USDA and Partners Rebuild a Harbor To Preserve 

a Local Economy

Rural Development's programs often have the 

greatest impact when USDA funds are leveraged 

with outside sources. The Crescent City harbor on 

California's northern coast — a major commercial 

fishing port vital to the local economy — was de-

stroyed by a tsunami in 2011. The needed repairs

Extends a Helping Hand to 

Rural Californians exceeded $55 million. The Harbor District was 

able to obtain a little over $50 million in grants 

from Federal, State, and local sources. Rural 

Development provided the remaining balance of 

more than $5.4 million through the Community 

Facilities loan program that finances essential 

community facilities in rural areas.

California's Rural Community Assistance 

Corporation provided the district with shortterm financing and a revolving line of credit to 

pay workers. Harbor repairs began in July 2012 

and are expected to be complete in early 2014. In 

the meantime, about 250 construction jobs were 

created, bringing a much needed boom to the 

local economy.

USDA Helps Women Farmer Cooperative 

Increase Business

In Pauma Valley in San Diego County, USDA 

Rural Development is helping the Bahati Mamas 

Cooperative. The co-op members are 11 Bantu 

women farmers who are refugees from Somalia. 

After relocating in the United States, the women 

formed a cooperative and began working with 

the International Rescue Committee and Califor-

nia Center for Cooperative Development (CCCD) 

for support with their project. Rural Development 

provided a Small Socially Disadvantaged Produc-

er Grant to CCCD for more than $113,000, part of 

which is helping the Bahati Mamas market and 

sell their crops. In their native language, "bahati" 

means lucky. The members of the co-op are very 

pleased to have the chance to farm again.

USDA Helps Community 

Relocate to Safe Housing

In 2009, a Federal judge ordered the "Duroville" 

trailer park on the Torres-Martinez Indian reser-

vation to shut down because of hazardous con-

ditions. The park had dilapidated trailers, poor 

infrastructure, and debris-filled streets where 

feral dogs roamed. Before the park could close, 

19
improvements to the streets surrounding the park.

Mountain View Estates was developed in 

phases. The first families arrived in November 

2012, and the last group was welcomed in May 

2013.

Today, these families are enjoying basic 

amenities such as water and sewer systems, 

electrical service, and paved streets. The park also 

includes a community center, laundry facilities, a 

playground, and athletic fields. For the first time, 

kids can play outside without fearing dog attacks, 

and their parents can rest easy knowing that they 

are safe.

USDA Helps Bring High-Speed 

Broadband to Rural California

The Softcom Internet Communications 

company had provided dial-up Internet 

service to southern Sacramento and 

San Joaquin Counties for more than 20 

years. As technology advanced, however, many customers switched to other providers for high-speed Internet service. Because of 

reductions in subscribers, Softcom was unable to 

qualify for conventional loan financing to upgrade its systems and offer broadband.

USDA Rural Development was able to help 

the company modernize through the American 

Recovery and Reinvestment Act Broadband 

Initiatives Program. Softcom received a loan 

for more than $1.6 million and a grant of more 

than $5 million to upgrade its infrastructure and 

deploy wireless Internet equipment throughout 

its almost 400-square-mile service area.

The project was completed in July 2013. 

Today, about 6,000 homes, 4,300 businesses, and 

5 essential community institutions have access to 

enhanced high-speed Internet. Due to increased 

demand, Softcom has hired 10 new employees. 

Local businesses are also benefiting from 

better broadband service at a much lower cost. 

Additionally, broadband service has improved 

local law enforcement's ability to respond to 

emergency situations.

The project has had indirect benefits too. The 

City of Galt agreed to let Softcom place some of its 

wireless equipment on the city water tower. Galt is 

using lease payments from Softcom for use of the 

space to provide grants to help local nonprofits.

however, residents needed to find safe housing 

elsewhere.

USDA Rural Development helped finance the 

infrastructure for Mountain View Estates, a new 

181-lot mobile home park in Oasis, California, 

about 6 miles away, for the former residents of 

Duroville. The Coachella Valley Water District 

received $6 million in Rural Development water 

and wastewater grants to extend water and sewer 

service into the park, and Riverside County 

received $700,000 through the agency's Rural 

Business Enterprise Grant program, which helps 

support small and emerging rural businesses, for

fter serving in the military and 

coming home to raise his nieces 

and nephews, 90-year-old Hatcher 

B. Horton is finally enjoying the 

peace and quiet of a home of his 

own. Horton arrived at the USDA Rural Develop-

ment office in Lufkin, Texas, with an application 

to purchase a home just down the street from his 

family residence.

Horton was drafted into the U.S. Army in 1943 

during World War II and was stationed in India 

with the 4024th Airborne Unit as a truck driver. 

While in the service, he helped his grandmother 

purchase a home in Center, TX. After his 

honorable discharge in 1946, he went home to 

resume civilian life. His grandmother was raising 

nine grandchildren despite a serious illness. She 

passed away soon after he came home, and he 

assumed the responsibility of raising his nieces 

and nephews.

Horton had been living in the family home 

with one of his nieces, but had always wanted 

a home of his own. He applied for assistance 

through the Single-Family Housing Direct Loan 

Program. These loans are primarily used to help 

low-income individuals or households purchase 

homes in rural areas. Funds can be used to build, 

repair, renovate or relocate a home, or to purchase 

and prepare sites, including water and sewage 

facilities.

Just down the street from the Horton family 

home was a property owned by USDA Rural 

Development. Horton contacted the real estate 

agent handling the listing and provided the 

Lufkin office with a contract on the property. 

Staff there quickly had the property inspected 

to ensure that it was qualified for financing and 

identified items needing repairs. Once funding 

was available, his loan closed in April 2013.

Today, Horton is spending his nights in his 

very own home. He is grateful for the opportunity 

to live close to his family and to be able to easily

USDA Supports Local Economic Development 

Through Intermediary Relending Program

Local lenders in Eden, TX, were reluctant to pro-

vide capital for a new startup textile company, 

Leggett Tactical (LT) Solutions. Two brothers, 

Blake and Bryce Leggett, started the company to 

provide high-quality personal protection acces-

sories for military personnel, such as bulletproof 

vests, and tactical accessories such as vests, 

pouches, uniforms, and weapon holsters.

Rural Development provided an Intermediary 

Relending Program loan to the Eden Economic 

Development Corporation in 2005. These funds 

are provided to intermediaries which, in turn, relend the funds to local small businesses to provide 

them with capital for business development. The 

Eden Economic Development Corporation used 

the funds to provide LT Solutions with working 

capital to purchase equipment and hire staff. 

Additionally, the Eden City Council provided the 

company with temporary office and warehouse 

space.

Since opening its doors, LT Solutions has 

continued to grow. In 2010, the company was 

operating out of the Eden police department’s 

former facility and had four employees on staff. 

As the company secured new contracts for its line 

of textile products, it quickly outgrew the space. 

Eden city officials worked with the Leggetts to 

find another location to meet their needs and 

renovated a vacant, 6,000-square-foot building 

in downtown Eden to accommodate the evergrowing and expanding company. LT Solutions 

moved into the new location in 2011.

The Leggett brothers realized that the larger 

facility offered greater production capabilities that 

would allow them to diversify their products and 

further expand their market. They set their sights 

on a new line of products that would maximize 

the investment of materials, equipment, and labor 

already in place. They named the new product 

line White Wing Label.

El Paso County Residents Get Water Service for the First Time

The Lower Valley Water District’s water 

system serves residents of Colonias del 

Paso and Ascencion in El Paso County, 

Texas. As soon as bids opened on the 

first phase of construction of the system, 

water district officials applied to USDA 

Rural Development for financing for a 

second phase of the project. The first phase 

completed the “backbone” for the water 

system — the booster pumps, 2 ground 

storage tanks, the Supervisory Control and 

Data Acquisition system, and 193 water 

meters for residents of Colonia del Paso 

and Ascencion. However, other area families in Darrington, Dairyland, Vista Larga, 

and College Park were not reached by the 

system and were still paying extremely 

high prices to water haulers for deliveries 

of potable water.

USDA Rural Development provided 

the Lower Valley Water District with 

a grant for more than $2.8 million for 

a second phase of construction, the 

“Sandhills Water Improvement Project,” to 

extend water service to 171 more families.

The project consists of water 

distribution lines, gate valves, fire 

hydrants, service yard lines, and 

water meters for the 171 families. A 

groundbreaking ceremony was held for 

the Sandhills project in May 2013. Local 

residents were happy that the project was 

underway and that safe, clean drinking 

water would soon be available to them 

simply by turning on a faucet. The new 

distribution system for Darrington, 

Dairyland, Vista Larga, and College Park 

will improve the health and the quality of 

life of residents.

USDA Rural Development has 

previously provided the Lower Valley 

Water District with over $23 million in 

loans and grants to construct water and 

wastewater facilities in rural areas of El 

Paso County.

A loan specialist at the Bryan local office 

evaluated Lister’s case and determined that she 

could afford a new home. However, Lister had 

lived on the family property for many years, and 

it was the only place where she wanted to reside. 

Then another individual came forward with a 

legal claim to the same property and contested 

Lister’s ownership. She went to work to get 

clear title to the property. With help from her 

daughter, the title company, and 10 years of legal 

negotiations, she finally received the clear title she 

needed.

After the title dispute was resolved, Lister contacted the Bryan office and staff worked with her 

again on her application for Single-Family Housing Direct Loan assistance to construct a new 

home. Lister also contacted her builder, who had 

been holding on to her original construction plans 

since 2001.

Lister, who is 76 years old, told USDA staff in Bryan that she almost gave up because of the lengthy 

title dispute and her age. Now that she’s in her 

new home, she says that building the home has 

changed her life. Her message for others: “Never 

give up on your dreams and just keep working 

towards your goal — anything is possible.”

Through the White Wing Label, the company 

designs and manufactures new products for nonmilitary customers such as business, sporting, 

and travel items, gifts, and accessories. The new 

line has enabled the company to enter into a new 

market. Today, as a result of the assistance from 

USDA and the Eden Economic Development 

Corporation, the company currently has 15 fulltime employees. The Leggetts are also considering 

moving into a larger facility as the business 

continues its success.

“We view Eden as a place of growth with 

huge potential and will work to employ local 

residents and bring new people to Eden for 

employment,” said Blake Leggett, president and 

chief executive officer.

USDA Helps Homeowner Get New, Safe Housing

In 2001, Lola Lister of Bryan, TX, applied to USDA 

Rural Development for a loan to repair her manufactured home that she had purchased in 1969. 

However, agency staff found it contained major 

health and safety hazards, including faulty electrical wiring and heating and cooling systems, 

a leaking roof, and poor plumbing. They determined that the home was beyond repair.

Waitsfield, Vermont, Receives New Water System

For years, community leaders in rural Waitsfield, 

Vermont, worked to develop a community water 

system to serve the two villages within Waits-
facility was designed to promote 

better collaboration and interaction 

between agencies.

The centralized campus for 

CVCAC in Barre, Vermont, was 

achieved through a partnership 

between USDA Rural Development and other 

Federal and local providers. Rural Development 

provided the majority of the funding for the 

project through a $2 million Community Facilities 

direct loan. The Department of Housing and 

Urban Development and local organizations, 

businesses, and residents provided the rest of the 

funds needed for construction.

CVCAC’s new campus opened in July 2013. 

Today, the council’s operations are more efficient, 

and it has benefited from decreased costs by 

bringing most of its programs and more than 

field’s borders. Waitsfield is situated between an 

Interstate highway and several popular ski areas, 

and that made system infrastructure development 

difficult because of scattered overall development 

and sprawl. Development was also complicated 

by increased demand from residents and businesses for water and by health risks posed by many 

wells and septic systems that were too close to one 

another. With Rural Development’s help, Waitsfield’s new water system was launched in 2012.

In 2013, Rural Development helped Waitsfield 

expand the system by providing the utility with 

a $200,000, low-interest loan. Funds will be used 

to extend the existing water main approximately 

220 feet, bore water lines under a river, and 

connect the municipal system to existing service 

lines at the Eagles Resort, a local condominium 

association. Eagles Resort previously received 

public water through another system that began 

having problems providing adequate water 

supplies to customers and resorted to using an 

emergency well, established without appropriate 

permits, to maintain its supply. Eagles Resort 

managers were forced to haul bulk water to the 

condominium’s storage tank to keep up with 

demand, costing the association thousands of 

dollars. The USDA funds will help ensure that 

residents will have access to a dependable supply 

of safe drinking water.

USDA Finances Community Action Agency’s New 

Campus

The Central Vermont Community Action 

Council (CVCAC) provides programs and 

services for low- to moderate-income Vermont 

families designed to reduce poverty and create 

prosperity. The council needed a facility to 

centralize services and improve communications 

between the agencies that work with CVCAC. 

Previously, CVCAC affiliate agencies such Head 

Start, Weatherization Services, Community 

Economic Development, Food Shelf, Family 

Support Services, and Workforce 

Development were scattered across central 

Vermont. The distance between agencies 

often led to the duplication of services or 

gaps in services offered to clients. The new 

half of its staff to one location. Most importantly, 

CVCAC’s clients are benefiting from the facility 

because multiple services are available in one 

place. For instance, there is a kitchen at the 

CVCAC campus and, in October 2013, students 

from the first “Kitchen Academy” course offered 

there graduated from class. The program, made 

available through a partnership with the Vermont 

Food Bank, trains students interested in culinary 

careers and supplies unused food items back 

to the food bank. The campus also includes a 

Resource Center — furnished with a library and 

computers — that is helping CVCAC clients find 

jobs, increase their financial and business skills, 

and continue pursuing other adult education 

options.
