Under this Notice of Funding Opportunity, EPA is seeking applications from organizations with a demonstrable history of providing effective, results-oriented technical assistance to public water systems. The agency’s priorities include maximizing funds to provide significant benefit to drinking water systems in communities of need; tackling the climate crisis; and advancing environmental justice and equity. The EPA believes this funding plays a significant role in ensuring continued access to resources to support infrastructure improvements that protect public health, safeguard the environment, and advance environmental justice at the public water system level.
