This $28,716,000 Formula Grant award was made by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), under the Water Infrastructure Improvements for the Nation Small and Underserved Communities Emerging Contaminants Grant Program (CFDA 66.442), to the Minnesota Department of Health Financial Management Division. The funding will support projects and activities to address emerging contaminants, such as per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS), in drinking water supplies serving small or disadvantaged communities in Minnesota. Specific activities to be undertaken include research, testing, planning, design, treatment, source water protection, water system restructuring, providing access to drinking water services, technical assistance, outreach, education, and workforce development for public water systems. All $28.72M in funding will be provided as subawards to 10 eligible communities in Minnesota to fund construction and remediation of water infrastructure addressing manganese contamination. The anticipated outcomes include ensuring all Minnesotans are provided with safe and reliable drinking water by reducing or removing contaminants of emerging concern from the water supply.
