On October 23rd, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) announced that California will receive $276 million for Fiscal Year 2025 to help communities make essential water infrastructure upgrades to safely manage wastewater, protect local freshwater resources, and deliver safe drinking water to homes, schools, and businesses.
These funds, provided by the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law, will flow through the Clean Water and Drinking Water State Revolving Funds (CWSRF and DWSRF), a long-standing federal-state water investment partnership. This multibillion-dollar investment will fund state-run, low-interest loan programs to address key challenges in financing water infrastructure. This announcement includes allotments for the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law Clean Water General Supplemental funds for California ($177,966,000), Clean Water Emerging Contaminants funds ($15,362,000), and $82,428,000 under the Drinking Water Emerging Contaminants Fund.
