Your municipality's water infrastructure needs can no longer be ignored. Make PE pipe the right choice for your community. Its trenchless installation may reduce restoration and roadway reconstruction costs.
The American Recovery and Reinvestment Act (Recovery Act) provided roughly $4 billion for the Environmental Protection Agency's (EPA) Clean Water State Revolving Fund and roughly $2 billion for EPA's Drinking Water State Revolving Fund. The State Revolving Funds are allocated by formula to states, which, in turn, provide low-interest loans to public water systems for water infrastructure improvements. These programs fund a wide variety of activities including construction or improvements to wastewater treatment plants, stormwater and sewer overflow control, water reuse and conservation projects, and the installation and replacement of drinking water treatment facilities. In order to be eligible to receive formula grants from EPA, states must create and maintain an Intended Use Plan (IUP), which includes a list of priority projects.
Use the map below to see the total dollars allocated in each State for these projects.
