The City of Birmingham received a $1.69 million Cooperative Agreement from the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) Region 5 under the Congressionally Mandated Projects program (CFDA 66.202), effective May 1, 2025, with completion targeted for June 30, 2026. This award funds the implementation of the city's Combined Sewer System Critical Rehabilitation Program, as directed by the 2023 Consolidated Appropriations Act. The project deliverables include removal of accumulated debris and sediment, root mass removals, mineral deposit removals, full-length or spot sewer lining, and installation of internal sleeves within the combined sewer infrastructure.

The anticipated outcomes of this clean water infrastructure rehabilitation project are to reduce inflow and infiltration to eliminate sewer surcharging that may cause basement backups and combined sewer overflows (CSOs), as well as to remove features that obstruct or reduce flow capacity. These improvements are intended to increase system resilience to intense precipitation events and benefit City of Birmingham residents. No subawards are included in this assistance agreement.
