Drinking Water System Infrastructure Resilience and Sustainability Program – SDWA 1459A(l)

Program objective

The purpose of this grant program is to increase drinking water system resilience to natural hazards. Grant funding can be used to assist in the planning, design, construction, implementation, operation, or maintenance of a program or project that increases resilience to natural hazards. Funding is for projects that increase drinking water system resilience to natural hazards in underserved communities that are disadvantaged communities or communities with a population of less than 10,000 individuals. Underserved communities include those communities that: do not have household drinking water or wastewater services; are served by a public water system that violates, or exceeds a requirement of a national primary drinking water regulation issued under SDWA section 1412, including a maximum contaminant level, a treatment technique, or an action level.
