Domestic water grants - regular

This $7,285,973 Project Grant was awarded on September 26, 2023 by the U.S. Department of Agriculture's Rural Utilities Service under the Water and Waste Disposal Systems for Rural Communities program (CFDA 10.760). The funding will support the Union Water Supply Corporation's efforts to construct, upgrade, and repair drinking water systems, wastewater treatment facilities, solid waste management systems, and stormwater infrastructure in financially needy rural areas of Texas. The goal is to ensure reasonable user costs for rural residents, businesses, and other rural users while enhancing the quality and reliability of essential water and waste services. This grant is part of the Department of Agriculture's recent disaster recovery initiative to provide funding for water infrastructure system repairs, capacity development, and resilience measures in rural communities affected by natural disasters in 2022.
