- EPA Announces Local Clean Water Awards Program
1) EPA Requests Applications for Drinking Water Security Grants
As part of the celebration of the 30th Anniversary of the Clean Water
Act, EPA is launching a major new recognition program for local governments
that are taking "extraordinary" steps to protect and enhance
the health of the nation's waters. This program, called Clean Water Partners
for the 21st Century, will recognize local governments that are moving
beyond clean water regulatory requirements to help achieve even greater
levels of protection for the nation's water resources. EPA is undertaking
this effort in partnership with a number of leading local and state organizations.
EPA expects to recognize those entities accepted into the program in fall
2003. For more information, visit http://www.cleanwaterpartners.org/
