Thanks to a $6 billion boost from the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law, EPA is increasing investments available through the Drinking Water State Revolving Fund (DWSRF) to rebuild the nation’s water infrastructure.
The funding will specifically address lead service line replacement, PFAS and other emerging contaminants and other critical drinking water system improvements.
“These historic investments will help communities in Pennsylvania resolve decades-long problems that threaten the safety of their drinking water,” said EPA Regional Administrator Adam Ortiz. “Ensuring that the most vulnerable communities benefit from this funding is critical for protecting their health, making them resilient to the effects of climate change, and growing their local economies.”
In Pennsylvania, this funding is administered by the PA Infrastructure Investment Authority.
