Domestic water grants - regular

The City of Cascade received a $526,000 Domestic Water Grants - Regular award from the U.S. Department of Agriculture's Rural Utilities Service (RUS) on June 27, 2025, under the Water and Waste Disposal Systems for Rural Communities program (CFDA 10.760). This Project Grant supports critical water infrastructure development and improvement projects serving rural communities in Idaho, with the ultimate completion date set for June 27, 2025.

The grant funds water infrastructure projects designed to enhance drinking water systems, improve service quality and reliability, and support financially needy rural communities in maintaining essential water management services. RUS's Water and Waste Disposal Systems for Rural Communities program provides financial assistance to ensure reasonable user costs for rural residents and businesses while addressing health and sanitary infrastructure needs in truly rural areas. The award aligns with the program's objective of directing resources toward communities with demonstrated financial need and infrastructure deficiencies.
