Background
On February 17th, President Barack Obama signed the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009 into law. This act is the first crucial step in a concerted effort to create and save millions of jobs, jumpstart our economy, and begin the process of transforming it for the 21st century with $288 billion in economic recovery tax relief and $499 billion in thoughtful and carefully targeted priority investments with unprecedented accountability measures built in.

Water Infrastructure
Water infrastructure funding under the current legislation will be implemented through the Clean Water Act State Revolving Loan Fund and the Safe Drinking Water Act State Revolving Loan Fund. Please review the information below to learn more about these programs and the proposed levels of funding under the House and Senate legislation for drinking water and wastewater projects.

Funding Mechanisms
Clean Water Act (CWA) State Revolving Loan Fund |
Safe Drinking Water Act (SDWA) State Revolving Loan Fund |
---|---|
The Clean Water State Revolving Fund (CWSRF) is a loan program which provides low-cost financing to eligible entities within the state and tribal lands for water quality projects including all types of nonpoint source, watershed protection or restoration, and estuary management projects, as well as more traditional municipal wastewater treatment projects. | The Drinking Water State Revolving Fund (DWSRF) is a loan program which provides low-cost financing to eligible entities within the state and tribal lands for public and private water systems infrastructure projects needed to achieve or to maintain compliance with SDWA requirements and to protect public health. Small water systems and disadvantage communities are given higher funding priority |
Under the CWSRF & DWSRF programs, EPA Region 9 provides grants or seed money for loan programs to the states of Arizona, California, Hawaii and Nevada to capitalize individual state SRF programs. Tribes are eligible for funding under these programs. The programs are managed by the states, and loans or other types of assistance for drinking water and water quality projects are distributed according to each states program and priorities.
