This federal Formula Grant award, provided by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) through the Sewer Overflow and Stormwater Reuse Municipal Grant Program (CFDA 66.447), provides $203,000 in funding to the Vermont Department of Environmental Conservation (VT DEC) to support water quality improvement and protection projects. The activities to be performed include the execution and development of overflow and/or stormwater infrastructure projects, with a focus on planning, designing, and constructing eligible water quality projects for local municipalities in Vermont. The anticipated deliverables include plans, designs, and/or constructed overflow or stormwater infrastructure, as well as potential integrated stormwater management master plans, technical design documents, and solutions to address sanitary sewer overflows. The expected outcomes are to protect public health and improve water quality by reducing sewer overflows through the management of stormwater, with a particular emphasis on supporting rural and/or disadvantaged communities in Vermont.
