EPA Awards 2nd Round Of $30 Million In Clean Water Funding From Bipartisan Infrastructure Law To PA

On April 3, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) announced over $85,440,000 from the 2023 Consolidated Appropriations Act for states, Tribes, and territories through this year’s Clean Water State Revolving Funds (CWSRF) in the states that make up EPA’s Mid-Atlantic Region.

Pennsylvania will receive $30,014,000 which will be administered by the PA Infrastructure Investment Authority.

“Too many communities across the country are facing challenges with water infrastructure – from climate impacts like drought vulnerability, to a lack of basic wastewater services that everyone deserves,” said EPA Administrator Michael S. Regan. “President Biden’s Investing in America Agenda is getting unprecedented investments in clean water to communities that need them most. This funding paired with this historic funding from the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law will support local economies while advancing projects in communities to help ensure clean, safe water for residents.”
