Grants and loans are available through the Division of Financial and Technical Assistance for projects seeking funding for infrastructure.
Improving and maintaining the drinking water infrastructure throughout the state via grants and low-interest loans.
Improving and maintaining wastewater treatment and storm water management infrastructure throughout the state via grants and low-interest loans.
Improving and maintaining solid waste disposal and recycling capabilities throughout the state via grants and low-interest loans.
Funds provided to manage the state's nonpoint source (NPS) program projects that identify and address NPS pollution problems.
Assisting in the cleanup of certain petroleum releases determining the amount of reimbursement due to responsible parties for corrective actions.
The Board of Water and Natural Resources has the statutory authority for making the funding awards. The Division of Financial and Technical Assistance provides staff for the board and conducts the technical and financial reviews of funding applications. The interest rates for loans are periodically reviewed by the board.
Water and Waste Funding staff work with staff from the USDA Rural Development to coordinate state and federal financial assistance when applicants request financial assistance from both agencies. Staff from both agencies strive to put together a feasible funding package for the applicant.
Program staff also work with the Department of Transportation when applicants that are doing a water or wastewater project concurrent with a road project may request funding from the Community Access Grants. Often these highway and road projects create an opportunity to upgrade the water and wastewater infrastructure at a cost savings by eliminating road repair costs from the water project.
