Launches a program to help communities get expert support for water projects
This bill would create a new program to help communities, especially Indian Tribes, disadvantaged, and rural areas, plan and build important water projects. It would authorize money to be appropriated for "water project navigators" who would provide expert help with tasks like grant writing and project management. This aims to make it easier for communities to improve their water systems and become more resilient to climate impacts.
Today, many communities, especially those with fewer resources, may struggle to find the expertise and funding needed to develop complex water projects. This bill would establish a new Water Project Navigators Program, authorizing $15,000,000 annually to be appropriated from 2027 to 2032. This money would fund expert navigators who would help these communities with planning, grant writing, and technical assistance, making it easier to improve their water systems.
