Drinking
Water State Revolving Fund Program (DWSRF)
 The Drinking Water
State Revolving Fund (SRF) Program provides low-interest loans to
Eligible Entities
for planning, designing, and constructing public water facilities.
The Department solicits project information throughout the year. The information is used to establish the project priority
list for the following annual cycle. Funds are made available for
Pre-construction
Loans to rate-based public water systems,
Construction Loans
of $75,000 minimum or more, and
Pre-construction Grants
and
Construction
Grants to small financially disadvantaged communities. The
Loan Terms include a 20-year
(30-year for financially disadvantaged communities) amortization and
low-interest rates. Small community assistance is available for
communities having populations less than 10,000. Each year 15% of the
funds are reserved exclusively for their use. In addition, small
communities may qualify for loans from the unreserved 85% of the funds.
