The grant program offers financial assistance to eligible communities to prepare for or recover from emergencies that threaten the availability of safe, reliable drinking water. This includes a wide range of qualifying events such as droughts, floods, earthquakes, tornadoes, hurricanes, disease outbreaks, chemical spills, leaks, or seepage, and other disasters. A federal disaster declaration is not required to qualify. The funds can be used for water transmission line grants up to $150,000 and water source grants up to $1,000,000 to construct or repair water-related infrastructure. Applications are accepted year-round either online or through local RD offices.
