About this opportunity
The Environmental Protection Agency seeks applications for training and technical assistance grants to improve water quality and enable small public water systems to provide safe drinking water. Nonprofit organizations, universities, and public institutions are eligible to apply for funding under one of three National Priority Areas: assistance for small public water systems, small publicly-owned wastewater systems and onsite systems, or private well owners. Applications will be evaluated based on the proposed approach, qualifications, past experience on similar projects, and cost effectiveness. Applications are due no later than February 2, 2024.
Up to $30.7 million total will be awarded over two years to support projects in all 50 states, territories, and Washington D.C. Funded projects are expected to provide training, technical assistance, and support to small drinking water systems, small publicly-owned wastewater systems, onsite/decentralized wastewater systems, and private well owners to address operational, environmental, and financial challenges and ensure safe drinking water.
Synopsis
The EPA provides technical assistance (TA) to help communities identify water infrastructure needs, plan for capital improvements, maintain regulatory compliance, improve resiliency, build capacity, and apply for the range of eligible projects under various grant programs. TA is provided through direct interactions with water utilities and communities. Through this grant program, the EPA seeks to support communities at the drinking water system level, including operational, environmental, and financial resource challenges they face. The funds included in this opportunity will ensure that vital services are provided and reach the drinking water systems in communities that need them most. Funding will be provided to assist small drinking water systems, small publicly-owned wastewater systems, and onsite/decentralized wastewater systems and private well owners.
