EPA Announces Availability of $2.6 Billion in New Funding to Improve Water Infrastructure
More than $200 Million Allotted for the Six New England States
he U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) announced the availability of $2.6 billion in new funds to assist states, tribes and territories with improving drinking water and wastewater infrastructure across the country. This funding advances President Trump's efforts to rebuild the country's aging water infrastructure, create local jobs, and ensure all Americans have safe and clean water.
"EPA is delivering on President Trump's commitment to modernize our nation's water infrastructure and improve public health and environmental protections," said EPA Administrator Andrew Wheeler. "EPA's $2.6 billion contribution to the State Revolving Funds will enable more communities to make the investments needed to ensure Americans have safe water for drinking and recreation. These funds can also be combined with EPA's WIFIA loans to create a powerful, innovative financing solution for major infrastructure projects nationwide."
