  • Investing in Intelligent Technology: Facing Today’s Wastewater Challenges with the Future in Mind (pdf) (3.83 MB)
    This document is for communities that want to learn how other communities of various sizes, locations, and demographics are developing intelligent water systems and using CWSRF money to invest in technologies today for a more efficient and reliable water system in the future. The document provides a brief overview of select intelligent technologies: telemetry, advanced metering, real-time controls, and Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition (SCADA) systems.
  • CWSRF Best Practices Guide for Financing Nonpoint Source Solutions (pdf) (7.91 MB)
    This guide will help the 51 state-level CWSRF programs apply best practices to address the challenge of nonpoint source (NPS) pollution. Some CWSRF programs have achieved notable success using CWSRF funds to target NPS needs. These state programs produce creative solutions to combat NPS problems and offer valuable lessons for other states to consider. EPA developed this guide to share the collective wisdom from those states and provide case studies of successful and innovative partnerships nationwide. The guide will help state staff better align and integrate their state’s CWSRF and NPS management programs. The guide suggests strategies and key elements to expand the use of CWSRF resources to address priority needs as specified in state NPS management program plans, and it identifies potential obstacles and how to overcome them.
  • Financing Decentralized Wastewater Treatment Systems: Pathways to Success with the Clean Water State Revolving Fund  (pdf) (51.65 MB)
    This guide will help local and state onsite/decentralized wastewater programs and community leaders learn ways to access CWSRF financing. It describes CWSRF program basics, requirements, alternative financing structures, and mechanisms to effectively reach prospective borrowers to repair, construct, or replace their decentralized wastewater systems. This guide may aid state staff in CWSRF programs that have never financed decentralized system projects to begin or expand their assistance to include such projects. This guide provides the tools and knowledge necessary to successfully navigate the financing process and to understand the basics of alternative CWSRF financing structures.
