LENEXA, KAN. (OCT. 23, 2024) – Today, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) announced $3.6 billion in new funding under the Biden-Harris administration’s Bipartisan Infrastructure Law to upgrade water infrastructure and keep communities safe.

Combined with $2.6 billion announced earlier this month, this $6.2 billion in investments for fiscal year 2025 will help communities across the country upgrade water infrastructure that is essential to safely managing wastewater, protecting local freshwater resources, and delivering safe drinking water to homes, schools, and businesses.

These Bipartisan Infrastructure Law funds will flow through the Clean Water and Drinking Water State Revolving Funds (CWSRF and DWSRF), a long-standing, federal-state water investment partnership.
