“Once again, the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law is providing a once-in-a-generation funding opportunity that allows EPA and our partners to improve water quality and infrastructure. We’re laying the groundwork today for future decades of clean water for the people of Idaho.”-Casey Sixkiller (great name), Administrator of EPA Region 10
On 26JAN2023, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) announced that it had given Idaho $26-million-730-thousand to protect and improve water quality and infrastructure, back on 28DEC2022!
The money didn’t go directly to the state of Idaho, it is being divided (not evenly) between the federal government (EPA) co-sponsored Drinking Water State Revolving Fund and Clean Water State Revolving Fund. On top of that, the money isn’t free, the funding is to be issued out as low-interest loans!
Even though the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law money is going to federally co-sponsored programs, and is to be used as debt financing, the Idaho DEQ was grateful: “The Idaho Department of Environmental Quality appreciates the ongoing support from EPA to protect and improve water quality and infrastructure across our state, and we welcome any assistance that helps make these services more accessible and affordable for our communities.”-Jess Byrne, Director of Idaho DEQ
