More grant years for water agencies
This bill would extend the federal competitive grant program for large-scale water recycling from 5 years to 10 years. It would amend Section 40905(k) of the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act and would take effect upon enactment. Eligible applicants, like water agencies and local governments, would remain able to compete for grants. The bill would not change funding amounts, eligibility, or enforcement; it only lengthens the authorization period, so households would see indirect benefits if more recycling projects are built.
