This U.S. Department of the Interior, Bureau of Reclamation grant is offered to advance Desalination and Water Purification Research and Development (DWPR). The program partners with private industry, universities, and water utilities to address critical desalting and water purification needs. Reclamation prioritizes research offering widespread public benefits, particularly where private-sector investment is lacking due to risk. Emphasis is placed on projects with national significance, addressing large-scale water issues that benefit a broad public segment. This initiative aligns with the National Research Council’s recommendations and relevant legislation to enhance water availability and quality.
