The US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) announced $11.39 million (€10.5 million) to the state of North Dakota from President Biden’s Bipartisan Infrastructure through this year’s Clean Water State Revolving Fund (CWSRF).
The funding will support North Dakota communities in upgrading essential water, wastewater, and stormwater infrastructure that protects public health and treasured water bodies.
Nearly half of this funding will be available as grants or principal forgiveness loans helping underserved communities across America invest in water infrastructure, while creating good-paying jobs.
“Clean rivers, lakes, and streams are vital to North Dakota’s people and economy,” said EPA Regional Administrator KC Becker.
“These Bipartisan Infrastructure Law funds will complete much-needed water and wastewater projects and create jobs in communities across the state.”
“The Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act provided substantial increases for water infrastructure across North Dakota’s communities,” said Senator Kevin Cramer. “I am pleased to see these dollars are supporting projects to improve the water quality for communities throughout our state.”
