306C WWD native american grants - domestic water

This $1,194,000 federal Project Grant award was provided by the U.S. Department of Agriculture Rural Utilities Service under the Water and Waste Grants and Loans and Loan Guarantees (Section 306C) program (CFDA 10.770). The grant funding will support the Turtle Mountain Band of Chippewa Indians, doing business as the Turtle Mountain Tribe, in delivering water and waste disposal facilities and services to low-income rural communities in North Dakota facing significant public health risks from lack of access to safe, reliable water and sanitation. The project, which has an ultimate completion date of August 30, 2023, aims to improve environmental conditions and public health outcomes through construction and improvements to water treatment, distribution, and waste management infrastructure. As a federally recognized tribal government, the Turtle Mountain Tribe has an extensive history of managing federal grants across various agencies to support community development, infrastructure, and public service initiatives.
