This $774,000 formula grant award from 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) provides funding to the Oregon Health Authority (OHA) to implement a program that assists small, underserved, and disadvantaged communities in Oregon with addressing drinking water contamination.
Through this grant, OHA will administer four sub-awards to the Sleepy Hollow RV Park, London Water Co-op, Galice Subdivision Water Co., and Garden Valley Water Association to install or optimize drinking water treatment equipment and connect to new well sources. These improvement projects are intended to help provide safe drinking water to the communities served by these small water systems. The project activities are focused on compliance with the Safe Drinking Water Act and addressing emerging contaminants such as per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS).
