This is a $222,288,000 Formula Grant awarded by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) under the Drinking Water State Revolving Fund (DWSRF) program (CFDA 66.468). The grant funds will be used by the Puerto Rico Department of Health (PRDOH) to capitalize the Puerto Rico DWSRF, which will then provide financial assistance to public water systems for eligible infrastructure projects. Eligible projects include rehabilitation of drinking water treatment plants, installation of emergency power generators, improvements to drinking water treatment facilities, raw water interconnections between plants, elimination of treatment plants, and installation of an islandwide level control system. The funding will also support technical assistance to small systems, program administration, and other allowable uses. The key objectives are to increase the technical, financial, and managerial capacity of public water systems and provide a cleaner, safer, and more resilient potable water supply for citizens throughout Puerto Rico, particularly addressing damage from Hurricanes Fiona and Ian. The grant period of performance runs from October 1, 2024 to September 30, 2031.
