EPA Publishes New WIFIA Resources
EPA’s Water Infrastructure Finance and Innovation Act (WIFIA) program has published new resources that highlight the program’s successes in implementing critical water infrastructure projects:
- An interactive Story Map showcasing the first 100 closed loans; and
- The 2022 WIFIA Annual Report, which highlights last year’s major WIFIA accomplishments
Additionally, EPA has adjusted the WIFIA application process to select borrowers on an ongoing basis. The Agency has stated that this change will “[help] borrowers plan their projects on their own timeline and accelerate investments in critical local water infrastructure.” Since making the change, the program has selected 30 new projects to apply for WIFIA loans. The Agency expects more to come over the remainder of the year. More information on the most recent project selections is on the WIFIA website.
