It is organized in order of project development, and it sets forth the requirements to obtain CWSRF financing. The CWSRF program provides financing for eligible projects concerning water restoration and maintaining water quality; additional objectives must be cost-effective and complement both the federal and state criteria and the policy goals of the State Water Board. Project primary and secondary scoring is depicted, including a readiness evaluation, community economic status, and financing due diligence.
