New York CWSRF IUP

Effective October 1 2020 – September 30 2021, the New York CWSRF Intended Use Plan provides guidelines for use. Recipients must comply with American Iron and Steel, Davis-Bacon and Related Acts federal wage rates, Equal Employment Opportunity, and Minority and Women Owned Business Enterprise (MWBE) participation. Allocation sources and uses of funds, Green Project Reserve requirements and more precede program goals. New York has committed FFY 2021 funds to projects that are in construction, ready to proceed with construction, or otherwise positioned to have funds disbursed quickly and steadily and advance both the environmental and economic goals of the State and the CWSRF to fund the highest priority water quality improvements as soon as needs arise. A long term goal is to provide financial assistance for projects that will protect groundwater, consistent with DEC’s goal to prevent pollution and protect the State’s groundwaters as a source of potable water supply.
