It aims to support small public water systems in achieving and maintaining compliance with the Safe Drinking Water Act. Additionally, the grant seeks to enhance water quality under the Clean Water Act by offering assistance to small publicly-owned wastewater systems, communities utilizing onsite/decentralized wastewater systems, and private well owners. The initiative prioritizes making these essential training and technical assistance activities accessible in both rural and urban communities, and explicitly includes personnel from tribally-owned and operated systems, ensuring comprehensive national coverage for water quality improvement and safe drinking water provision.
