Purpose
This document provides information and guidelines on how the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) will award and administer water infrastructure projects identified as Congressionally Directed Spending (CDS) and Community Project Funding (CPF) items in Appropriations Acts. For Fiscal Year (FY) 2023, the Consolidated Appropriations Act (P.L. 117- 328) includes $1,472,364,541 in the State and Tribal Assistance Grants (STAG) account for 715 drinking water, wastewater, stormwater infrastructure, and water quality protection projects. 1 Background
President Biden signed the FY 2023 Consolidated Appropriations Act (P.L. 117-328) into law on December 29, 2022. In this law, Congress continued the practice of funding specifically named community infrastructure projects, referred to by the Senate as CDS items and in the House of Representatives as CPF items. Appendix A
of this document provides the pertinent section of
the Consolidated Appropriations Act, 2023, also referred to as the EPA’s FY 2023 Appropriations Act. Water infrastructure CDS/CPF projects are further referred to as Community Grants projects in this document.
Eligibility
Community Grants projects are designated for the planning, design, and construction of drinking water, wastewater, and stormwater infrastructure and for water quality protection. Eligible Community Grant projects are included in Appropriations Acts. For FY 2023, eligible projects are referenced in the explanatory statement found in Appendix A. Appendix B lists each project
that is eligible for funding under the FY 2023 Appropriations Act and identifies the state, recipient name, purpose, and appropriated funding amount of each project. EPA will use the Clean Water State Revolving Fund (CWSRF) and Drinking Water State Revolving Fund (DWSRF) framework to guide implementation of these Community Grants; the CWSRF and
DWSRF eligibilities should be referred to for development of workplans, project scopes, costs, and sub-awards. Funds appropriated for Community Grants projects may not be awarded solely to repay loans received from SRF programs or to repay other debts unless there are explicit instructions to do so in Appropriations Acts or accompanying explanatory statements and/or committee reports. These funds may not be used for operation and maintenance.
Technical Corrections
Should a Community Grant recipient identified in an Appropriations Act need to modify the type, purpose, or named recipient of the Community Grant, a technical correction will be needed.
The Agency’s FY 2006 Appropriations Act (P.L. 109-54) included a permanent authority that allows EPA to make technical corrections to Community Grants only after consultation with Congress, without the need for additional legislation. For example, if a recipient (e.g., City of Salem) is named in the authorizing language but a different legal entity (e.g., Salem Wastewater
1 In the FY 2023 Consolidated Appropriations Act, EPA received a total of 733 CDS/CPF projects for $1,502,588,541. Of this total, 715 projects are for water community projects; this document pertains to these projects.

Utility) owns the infrastructure, the recipient can request a technical correction. As another example, if the Appropriations Act provides for a specific type of project (e.g., drinking water) when a different type of project (e.g., wastewater) is needed, the recipient can request a technical correction to change the project type.
Appropriate Types of Technical Corrections
A technical correction can be made for all, or part of a project identified in an Appropriations Act to change the recipient, the purpose, or both. The statutory language that provides EPA with the authority to make technical corrections does not limit the extent to which a technical correction can alter the original project, if the new project provides for water quality protection or involves construction
2 of drinking water, wastewater, or stormwater infrastructure. Technical corrections cannot, however, be used to change the project purpose to debt repayment, because debt repayment does not meet the statutory terms of the authority. After consultation with the House and Senate Committees on Appropriations, EPA will generally approve changes in purpose that meet the above criteria or changes in recipient where both the original entity and the new entity to be named concur with the change. Any technical correction request involving a change to both the purpose and the recipient entity must be accompanied by additional documentation explaining:
• The need or reason for the change;
• The relationship between the two entities;
• Who initiated the request; and
• The involvement of any third parties, if known.
Additional information on technical corrections is provided in Appendix C .
Cost Share Requirements
Appropriations Acts require each Community Grant recipient to provide a cost share from non- federal sources unless the recipient is approved for a cost share waiver by EPA. For FY 2023, the cost share amount is 20% of the total grant project cost. All contributions toward cost share should be included in the grant budget and must be categorized in the appropriate grant budget category (see Appendix D
for more information on budget development). The source of the cost share must be included in the workplan and payment requests. EPA may pay 80% of costs shown on approved payment requests up to the approved federal funding amount.
• All grant funds, including a cost share, can be used only for allowable costs in executing the project. All cost sharing funds must have supporting source documents (a record that supports a transaction).
• Services donated to recipients may be furnished by professional and technical personnel and consultants in accordance with 2 CFR 200.434
. Dollar values must be placed on all
2 “The term ‘construction’ means any one or more of the following: preliminary planning to determine the feasibility of treatment works, engineering, architectural, legal, fiscal, or economic investigations or studies, surveys, designs, plans, working drawings, specifications, procedures, field testing of innovative or alternative waste water treatment processes and techniques meeting guidelines promulgated under section 1314(d)(3) of this title, or other necessary actions, erection, building, acquisition, alteration, remodeling, improvement, or extension of treatment works, or the inspection or supervision of any of the foregoing items.” (33 U.S.C. § 1292(1)). 4 | Page
donated services in accordance with 2 CFR 200.306. All cost sharing funds must be included in the workplan and budget and be part of the grant’s total project costs. • All cost sharing funds must conform to the same laws, regulations, grant conditions, etc., as the federal funds within the grant; recipients may prefer to limit cost sharing to the amount required.
See Appendix D and Appendix F
for information on general principles of cost allowability.
Sources of Cost Share
Eligible sources of “non-federal” funds to meet the cost share requirement are described below; recipients can use any or a combination of the following eligible sources if the requirements in 2 CFR 200.306 are met:
1) Public sources3. The following public funding sources can be used to meet the cost share requirement:
• State appropriations;
• Local government match to the grant project;
• U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development, Community Development Block Grant funds;
• U.S. Department of Agriculture, Rural Development funds; • Appalachian Regional Commission funds; and,
• The CWSRF and DWSRF programs if those funds are:
o non-federal funds such as loan repayments, interest earnings, bond proceeds, and fees, or
o a state contribution to the SRF above the statutorily required 20% match.
Note: EPA has issued a class deviation document pertaining to CWSRF and a policy
memo pertaining to DWSRF that allow Community Grant recipients to use certain sources of funds from the two SRF programs as the non-federal cost share. The class deviation and policy documents allow SRF programs to use the non-federal and non- state match share of SRF funds to provide loans that Community Grant recipients can use as the cost share for community projects.
Funding made available to jurisdictions through the American Rescue Plan Act of 2021 (ARPA), including ARPA Revenue loss funds, cannot be used to meet the non-federal cost share requirement.
2) Private sources. These include funding from a business or nonprofit contributing to the project.
3) In-kind services. These may include the applicant’s administrative expenses for managing and overseeing the grant and projects, provided that the expenses are not being reimbursed by the federal share of the grant award. In-kind services contributed by other
3 Community Grant recipients can use federal funds from other programs as all, or part, of the cost share only if the statute authorizing those programs specifically allows the funds to be used as match for other federal grants.
Additionally, other federal program funding must be allowed to support the planning, design and/or construction of drinking water, wastewater, or stormwater infrastructure projects. 5 | Page
entities may also be allowable as cost share. Force accounts may be used as in-kind services: personnel costs include salaries, wages, and allowable incentive compensation for recipient employees (i.e., who receive W-2 forms) who spend time working on the project. In-kind (cost share) contributions must be verifiable and documented. For example, if the recipient does not intend to charge the EPA assistance agreement for all time employees spend working on the project, the applicant may include salaries or wages in the personnel category for cost share purposes.
Determining Cost Share Amount
For the purposes of calculating the cost share amount, the amount specified in the FY 2023 Appropriations Act for EPA’s contribution represents 80% of the total grant project cost.
Grant applications are not required to reflect costs that exceed total grant project costs as calculated below; this is the minimum total grant project cost required to receive the full FY 2023 appropriation amount.
The following example demonstrates how to calculate the cost share amount using $100,000 as the EPA contribution:
A. Identify the Total Grant Project Cost
Divide the EPA contribution by .80 to calculate the total grant project cost:
$100,000 ÷ 0.80 = $125,000.
$125,000 is the total grant project cost
B. Multiply the Total Grant Project Cost by .20 to determine the cost share amount Total grant project cost x .20 = required cost share amount $125,000 x .20 = $25,000
$25,000 is the required 20% cost share amount
C. Confirm
Total grant project cost = EPA Contribution + Cost Share Amount. $125,000 = $100,000 + $25,000
Waivers to Cost Share Requirements
EPA supports waiving required non-federal cost share for projects located in, or that primarily serve, disadvantaged communities. EPA is using the discretion provided by the FY 2023 Appropriations Act (see Appendix A) to consider waiving or reducing statutorily required non- federal cost share on Community Grant funds when requested and appropriate.
6 | Page
For projects identified in the FY 2023 Appropriations Act, EPA will consider the Cost Share Waiver Criteria A – F4 below, in defining disadvantaged communities for the purposes of Community Grants. This set of criteria differs from that which is available when EPA considers requests for waivers from the cost share requirement for projects identified in the FY 2022 Appropriations Act.
5 Projects identified in the FY 2023 Appropriations Act that are in communities that meet at least one of the criteria below may request a waiver of the non-federal cost share requirement under the Community Grants Program. Systems that serve large service areas with a specific project that will primarily serve a subset of its service area that meets one of these criteria may also request a waiver.
Waivers to the cost share requirement must be approved by EPA’s Assistant Administrator for Water, in accordance with EPA’s Delegation of Authority 1-102. 6 Recipients requesting cost
share waivers should submit a written request to the Regional EPA Project Officer for consideration. Waiver requests should include applicable Cost Share Waiver Criteria(s) and any related supporting documentation including source data retrieved from the websites noted below.
Many of the criteria can be found online on the Census Bureau ’s website. Recipients can start by
entering their community’s name in the search bar and viewing the community’s profile. Tables and graphics from the Census Bureau’s website can be downloaded or embedded in a recipient’s cost share waiver request. Recipients should use the most recent data available. Specific tables with more detailed information and other publicly available datasets beyond the community profile page for each metric are provided below.
Cost Share Waiver Criteria
A. Community median household income (MHI) is less than 80% of State MHI o MHI can be found on a community’s profile page of the US Census Bureau – use the search function to find your community. Communities should use the most recent data available.
o MHI is also available for most communities from the latest annual Census American Community Survey (ACS) data collection. In the few cases where a
4EPA developed Cost Share Waiver Criteria A – F for the purposes of assessing the appropriateness of waiving the cost share requirement for the 715 drinking water, wastewater, stormwater infrastructure, and water quality protection projects identified in the FY2023 Consolidation Appropriations Act, based on EPA’s Memorandum:
Implementation of the Clean Water and Drinking Water State Revolving Fund Provisions of the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law, Ma rch 8, 2022 (see Attachment 1, Appendix E, of the memorandum). 5 EPA’s FY 2022 Community Grants Implementation Guidance identifies three criteria that are not available for consideration of cost share waivers for projects identified in the FY 2023 Appropriations Act: Communities with ≥
3.4% unemployed population ≥ 16 years in civilian labor force, Communities with ≥ 12.1% vacant households, and Communities in counties with Social Vulnerability Index scores higher than 0.80. 6 EPA’s Delegation of Authority 1-102, Grants and Cooperative Agreements for Water Infrastructure Projects or Other Water Resource Projects from Funds Appropriated for the State and Tribal Assistance Grant Account or the Environmental Programs and Management Account, authorizes EPA’s Assistant Administrator for Water and Regional Administrators, “To approve and administer grants and cooperative agreements for water infrastructure projects or other water resource projects from funds appropriated for the State and Tribal Assistance Grant Account or the Environmental Programs and Management Account or any successor accounts, including a project authorized by Section 510 of the Water Quality Act of 1987, P.L. 100-4, 101 Stat. 7,80, EPA's FY 1991 Appropriations Act (P.L. 101-507), and any subsequent public law; and to perform other activities necessary for the effective administration of those grants and cooperative agreements.” 7 | Page
local jurisdiction's MHI is not available, the surrounding county's MHI may be sufficient. The Census Bureau provides annual 5-Year Average Median Household Income data in Table B19013. Click on the B19013 Tab le, select GEOS and search under “most common geographies” select “State” and then select the relevant and enter community name in the search bar.
B. Communities with $25,766 or less upper limit of Lowest Quintile Income • Communities can view their Lowest Quintile Income on the Census Bureau website and search by community name and “B19080 HOUSEHOLD INCOME QUINTILE UPPER LIMITS.” Communities should use the most recent data.
C. Communities with ≥ 30.9% Population Living Under 200% of Poverty Level o The US Department of Health and Human Services provides US Federal Poverty Guidelines, including a chart with percentage of poverty levels (i.e., 200%). o More detailed information on the population living under the poverty level can be found in Table S1701: Poverty Status in the Past 12 months for communities .
D. Community with census tracts that have a poverty rate greater than or equal to 20%
o Percent of the poverty rate can be found on a community’s profile page provided
by the Census Bureau.
o More detailed information can be found in Table S1701: Poverty Status in the Past 12 months.
E. Combined sewer and drinking water costs are greater than 2% of the 20th percentile household income
o Communities can view their Lowest Quintile Income on the Census Bureau
website and search by community name and “B19080 HOUSEHOLD INCOME QUINTILE UPPER LIMITS”. Communities should use the most recent data. o The total bills for one year for residential customers can be found from the community’s local utilities.
F. Communities with ≥ 11.7% Population Receiving Food Stamps/SNAP Benefits o Communities can find the percentage of their population receiving SNAP benefits on the Census Bureau website. Select “view state and local data” to search by state and then City/town or county.
Insular Territories Projects
The non-federal cost share requirement is waived for any community projects located in the U.S. territories. This is consistent with the Omnibus Territories Act of 1977, which authorizes Departments and Agencies to award grants to Insular Territories, such as the U.S. Virgin Islands, without a match requirement.
Tribal Projects
Consistent with the implementation of the Clean Water Indian Set-Aside Grant Program under Clean Water Act (CWA) Section 518 and the Drinking Water Infrastructure Grants Tribal Set- Aside Program under Safe Drinking Water Act (SDWA) Section 1452(i), which do not require tribal cost share, EPA will waive the non-federal cost share for tribal community projects. 8 | Page
Grant Administration: Community Grants Lifecycle
EPA’s Community Grant appropriations are STAG infrastructure grants to improve water infrastructure and water quality through funding for drinking water, wastewater, and stormwater projects. Appendix B lists the 715 water CDS/CPF projects identified in the FY 2023 Appropriations Act. These 715 projects are collectively funded “off the top” at a level of $863,108,642 from the FY 2023 general CWSRF appropriations and $609,255,899 from the FY 2023 general DWSRF appropriations.
EPA’s Regional Offices will administer Community Grants as authorized under EPA’s Delegation of Authority 1-102.
6 Per EPA’s Delegation of Authority 1-14A,7 EPA Regional Administrators are authorized to award grants and cooperative agreements, including Community Grants, that were appropriated in FY 2023.
The following sections describe the lifecycle stages of each award. Additional information on grants policies and resources, including on receiving and managing EPA grants, is listed in Appendix F
.
Pre-Award Phase
While Congress directs Community Grant funds to specified recipients for defined projects, recipients are required to fulfill statutory and regulatory requirements before EPA can award grant funding. These requirements include but are not limited to providing necessary information for the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) environmental review, review of any pre- award costs, and submitting a complete grant application package. Appendix D and Appendix
E provide information on grant application package content and submission.
1. NEPA Environmental Review
As required by EPA’s NEPA implementing regulations (40 CFR 6.100-6.406), EPA must complete the NEPA review process before awarding a grant for design and/or construction.
The requirement for an environmental review under NEPA generally does not apply to grants solely for planning activities, such as infrastructure assessments, watershed plans, and wastewater capital improvement plans. Applicants should check with their EPA Regional
Contact to determine if NEPA applies to a particular Community Grant. See the Regulations and Requirements section and Appendix F for additional information about NEPA Environmental Review.
2. Pre-award Costs and Procurement Review
Costs incurred prior to grant awards may be eligible for reimbursement if the costs are in conformance with applicable federal and EPA statutes and regulations. Incurred costs are financial obligations: costs owed by an entity as a result of a transaction. The costs may have
7 EPA’s Delegation of Authority 1-14A, Assistance Agreements, authorizes Regional Administrators, the Assistant Administrator for Mission Support, and the Chief Financial Officer, “To take all necessary actions to award, obligate and de-obligate funds for, and administer fellowship, grant, cooperative and loan agreements (hereinafter financial assistance), and to make any final determinations required by law or regulations, with eligible recipients.” 9 | Page
been paid or remain unpaid. The regulations at 2 CFR 200.458 require that pre-award costs be incurred “…directly pursuant to the negotiation and in anticipation of the Federal award where such costs are necessary for efficient and timely performance of the scope of work.
Such costs are allowable only to the extent that they would have been allowable if incurred after the date of the Federal award and only with the written approval of the Federal awarding agency. If charged to the award, these costs must be charged to the initial budget period of the award, unless otherwise specified by the Federal awarding agency or pass- through entity.”
For Community Grants projects identified in the FY 2023 Appropriations Act, pre-award costs must be incurred on or after October 1, 2022, to be considered for eligibility.
Notwithstanding, and consistent with 2 CFR 1500.9, all costs incurred before EPA makes the award are at the recipient’s risk. EPA shall review the eligibility of such costs on a case-by- case basis prior to approving the project budget and awarding the grant.
A review of pre-award costs includes a review of contracts executed prior to award for compliance with applicable procurement regulations as described in Regulations and
Requirements.
3. Application Forms, Workplan, and Submitting an Application Upon completion of an environmental review under NEPA, development of a project workplan
8, and review of any pre-award costs (including any costs related procurement), applicants should submit a complete grant application package to EPA. The workplan and application must include any pre-award costs. Recipients must ensure that their organizations have registered with the federal government’s System for Award Management (SAM).
Recipients must have an active registration/record with SAM.gov and complete the Grants.gov registration process to apply for any federal funding.
The complete grant application includes several forms, as described in Appendix D . These
forms must be downloaded from the Community Grant opportunity package on Grants.gov - generic versions of the standard forms not downloaded from the Grants.gov website will not
8 The SRF appropriations are the vehicles being used to appropriate the CDS/CPF funds. However, the SRF authorities do not govern or authorize the CDS/CPF grants. The Consolidated Appropriations Act is structured so that the CDS/CPF funding is taken from the total amount in the SRF appropriations prior to the SRF allocation to the states. Accordingly, Program Results Codes (PRCs) have been assigned to each CDS/CPF project’s funding based on the SRF account from which each project’s funding was appropriated. However, the authorities governing the CDS/CPF projects are the language in the FY 2023 Consolidated Appropriations Act, which states that, “…$863,108,642 of the funds made available for capitalization grants for the Clean Water State Revolving Funds and $609,255,899 of the funds made available for capitalization grants for the Drinking Water State Revolving Funds shall be for the construction of drinking water, wastewater, and storm water infrastructure and for water quality protection…” and in the explanatory statement accompanying the FY 2023 Consolidated Appropriations Act (Appendix A).” Therefore, CDS/CPF grant/workplan activities may entail construction of drinking water, wastewater, and storm water infrastructure, and water quality protection related tasks, irrespective of EPA’s assignment of PRC. Additionally, there is language in the explanatory statement that indicates the SRF is not intended to be the authority for the CDS/CPF funds. For example, the explanatory statement states: “Applicable Federal requirements that would apply to a Clean Water State Revolving Fund or Drinking Water State Revolving Fund project grant recipient shall apply to a recipient receiving a CDS/CPF grant under this section.” That direction would be unnecessary if Congress was appropriating the CDS/CPF funds under the SRF authorities. 10 | Page
be accepted. See Appendix D for instructions on how to navigate to the Funding Opportunity Package and download the standard forms. Appendix F includes information on budget development and allowability of costs. In addition to the required forms, grant applicants must submit a project workplan that describes the proposed project, the milestone schedule, the need for the project, and the anticipated environmental and public health benefits (outputs and outcomes). See Community Grants Workplan Contents/Outline in Appendix E for more
information.
Applicants must submit a complete application package (with all required forms, a workplan, and additional required documentation) for EPA review and approval, through the grants.gov portal. See additional information in Appendix D
.
Post-Award Phase
After receiving an award, the recipient is ready to start working on the activities outlined in the approved workplan. Adhering to various grant regulations and the terms and conditions outlined in the grant agreement are critical to ensuring a successful grant project.
• Recipients submit payment requests to EPA for incurred costs. In some cases, pre-award costs may be included. Once the payment request is approved, the recipient can draw down the requested amount. As required by 2 CFR 200.305(b)
, EPA requires that recipients of
EPA financial assistance participate in the Automated Standard Application for Payments (ASAP) sy stem . Recipients must request payment for the minimum amounts needed for actual and immediate cash. Recipients will submit a payment request including supporting documentation such as copies of bills (vouchers, invoices, etc.), along with a description of services rendered, time spent, and charges for EPA review and approval. After review and approval, EPA will pay the recipient for the federal share of the allowable costs shown on the payment request. Information on
ASAP is available online.
• EPA grants contain General, Administrative, and Programmatic terms and conditions, which include reporting requirements such as filing an interim (annual) Federal Financial Report (FFR), annual MBE/WBE Reporting, and progress report submission.
EPA’s General Terms
and Conditions are applicable to all EPA awards, and additional terms and conditions for Community Grants awards will be specified in individual award agreements. Recipients should regularly review grant award terms and conditions throughout the life of the project to ensure that the organization remains in compliance with all requirements and must inform EPA if problems arise that jeopardize the completion of the project. EPA Regional Offices perform construction monitoring and oversight.
• Recipients’ personnel payroll and records system must be capable of providing reports on the activities of each employee who works directly on a grant. Charges to federal awards for salaries and wages must be based on records that accurately reflect the work performed.
Activity reports are typically signed by the individual employee and/or by a responsible supervisory official having first-hand knowledge of the activities performed by an employee.
The supervisor should be able to certify that the distribution of activity represents a reasonable estimate of the actual work performed by the employee during the periods 11 | Page
covered by the reports. 2 CFR 200.430 provides additional information on Standards for Documentation of Personnel Expenses.
• Recipients should contact the EPA Project Officer should any changes to the grant agreement (e.g., workplan, milestone schedule, budget) become necessary for the project to succeed, as soon as possible to discuss the changes. In accordance with 2 CFR 200.308, most changes must be approved by EPA and may require a formal amendment to the assistance agreement.
• EPA conducts administrative monitoring, including reviewing recipient invoices/payment requests and programmatic reports, and can request access to all records and conduct grant audits. EPA can disallow costs and take enforcement actions if the recipient fails to remain in compliance.
Closeout Phase
Closeout refers to the process EPA uses to determine that a recipient has completed all the required workplan activities under a grant and confirm that all applicable financial and administrative requirements as described in 2 CFR 200.344 have been met.
• Recipients must submit the final progress report according to the terms and conditions listed in the grant agreement and should demonstrate satisfactory completion of all workplan tasks and activities.
• Recipients prepare and submit several reports as part of the grant closeout process.
EPA’s
Frequently Asked Questions about Closeouts provides information about closeout requirements, procedures, records retention, and associated regulations. EPA provides more information for recipients via the online course on closing out grants.
Regulations and Requirements
Recipients are responsible for compliance with many statutes, regulations, and requirements including but not limited to EPA’s general regulations. In addition, each grant agreement will specify terms and conditions that establish a legally binding agreement between EPA and the recipient including but not limited to
EPA’s General Terms and Conditions. Details and
information related to several requirements that are of particular importance for recipient compliance prior to receiving grant awards are discussed below. Additional information and resources on these requirements, including recipient responsibilities for compliance, can be found in
Appendix F. EPA will review documentation from recipients to assess eligibility of costs incurred in accordance with EPA’s General Principles for Cost Allowability, as described in
EPA’s Interim General Budget Development Guidance.
Environmental Review
NEPA and other relevant applicable statutes and Executive Orders, such as the Endangered Species Act (ESA), apply to Community Grants projects authorized by the Annual Appropriations Acts. The applicable NEPA regulations are the Council of Environmental 12 | Page
Quality’s (CEQ) implementing regulations at 40 CFR Parts 1500-1508 and EPA’s NEPA regulations at 40 CFR Part 6. In accordance with EPA’s NEPA regulations, EPA must complete the NEPA process before issuing a grant award for construction activities.
NEPA and other cross-cutting Federal requirements that apply to the project (i.e., the approval and/or funding of work beyond the conceptual design point) cannot be delegated. Although EPA may fund the recipient’s development of an Environmental Information Document (EID) or other analysis for cross cutting authorities or executive orders in order to provide supporting information, EPA has the legal obligation to make the NEPA related decision, to issue the NEPA documents, to sign NEPA determinations, and to fulfill other cross-cutting Federal requirements before approving or paying for design and/or construction. Therefore, EPA grant funds cannot be used to prepare a federal document, such as an Environmental Assessment (EA) or Environmental Impact Statement (EIS).
When both EPA and another Federal agency are funding the same project, the agencies may negotiate an agreement for one to be the lead agency for performing grant oversight and management activities, including those related to NEPA and other cross-cutting Federal requirements. The lead agency can be the one that is providing the most funds for the project, or the agency that provided the initial funds for the project. The CEQ NEPA regulations at 40 CFR
1501.7(c) provide the factors listed in order of descending importance to determine the lead agency designation. If an EIS is required on a joint or related Federal action, EPA may serve as a co-lead or request to be a cooperating agency. In addition, EPA may adopt another Federal agency’s EIS or EA. Note EPA may adopt another Federal agency’s EA and use it as a basis for its Finding of No Significant Impact (FONSI), provided EPA has independently reviewed the EA and agrees with the analysis and circulates the FONSI and attached EA for the requisite 30-day comment period.
Recipients with CWSRF or DWSRF co-funded projects for which a State Environmental Review Process (SERP) has been completed can submit the completed state analysis for EPA review.
EPA will review the SERP document and will incorporate by reference any pertinent part of that document into EPA’s environmental document. EPA will request additional information from the recipient if necessary for EPA to conduct its own environmental analysis.
Each federal agency has its own regulations pertaining to the NEPA environmental review process. Recipients with projects that have undergone an environmental review by another federal agency may submit documents pertaining to another federal agency’s analysis for EPA review. EPA will independently review these documents to determine if the proposed actions is substantially the same and if it meets the standards of an adequate EIS, EA, or Categorical Exclusion (CATEX) determination. If so, EPA may adopt the federal EIS, EA, or CATEX determination, pursuant to 40 CFR 1506.3
. If EPA is unable to adopt the federal EIS, EA, or
CATEX determination, EPA will conduct its own environmental review and incorporate by reference any pertinent part of the agency’s environmental document. EPA will request additional information from the recipient if necessary for EPA to conduct its own environmental review. See
Appendix F for additional information on CATEX and EID development.
13 | Page
For design and construction projects for which another federal agency has not completed a NEPA review and projects that CWSRF or DWSRF do not co-fund and/or have not undergone a SERP, recipients will need to determine whether to request a CATEX from EPA or to prepare and submit an EID in order to proceed with a NEPA review.
Procurement
In general, all procurement transactions for professional engineering services and construction contractors must be conducted in a manner that includes and promotes fair and open competition from an adequate number of qualified sources. 2 CFR 200.320 details the specific methods of procurement to be followed and the circumstances under which each method can be used.
Recipients and subrecipients must have and use documented procurement procedures, consistent with State, local or tribal laws and regulation as well as Federal laws and regulations in accordance with the Procurement Standards contained in 2 CFR 200.317 – 2 CFR 200.327.
In accordance with 2 CFR 200.325
, recipients must provide EPA with technical specifications on proposed procurements when requested by EPA, including when pre-award costs are being considered for eligibility. In addition, upon request by EPA’s Grants Management Office (GMO) under 2 CFR 200.325 or 2 CFR 200.337, grantees must provide procurement documents to EPA for pre-procurement review when EPA is concerned that the grantee’s procurement procedures or practices do not comply with federal procurement requirements, including but not limited to procurements that do not comply with competition requirements. As provided in 2 CFR 200.332(d) and the terms of conditions of their EPA award, pass-t hrough entities are responsible for monitoring subrecipient compliance with procurement requirements in 2 CFR Parts 200 and 1500. EPA’s GMO may also request that pass-through entities provide EPA with information regarding subrecipient compliance with these requirements.
Selection of Architects and Engineers (projects inclusive of CWSRF-eligible activities) Projects consisting of CWSRF-eligible activities, irrespective of whether such projects are co- funded with CWSRF funding, must comply with the procurement processes for architectural and engineering (A/E) services as identified in 40 U.S.C.
1101 et seq., or an equivalent State
requirement. Where equivalent State requirements are complied with, the source of the requirement (e.g., existing State legislation or regulation, etc.) must be stated, and the Governor of the State must provide a certification to accompany the grant application that the State’s A/E procurement requirements are equivalent to
40 U.S.C. 1101 et seq.. In lieu of a certification from the Governor, the Attorney General’s certification submitted with each grant application may include the A/E certification.
EPA’s Disadvantaged Business Enterprise (DBE) Program
EPA’s DBE Program applies to all EPA Assistance Agreements and requires recipients who procure goods and/or services to: employ the good faith efforts, document their efforts, and maintain DBE forms and other documentation from the prime contractor. EPA grant recipients and subrecipients are required to seek and encouraged to utilize disadvantaged business enterprises (DBEs) for their procurement needs under grant agreements. Recipients and subrecipients must ensure that their contracts contain the following term and condition:
14 | Page
“The contractor shall not discriminate on the basis of race, color, national origin, or sex in the performance of this contract. The contractor shall carry out applicable requirements of 40 CFR Part 33
in the award and
administration of contracts awarded under EPA financial assistance agreements. Failure by the contractor to carry out these requirements is a material breach of this contract
which may result in termination of this
contract or other legally available remedies.”
Other DBE requirements are identified in 40 CFR Part 33.
Davis Bacon Act (DBA)
The DBA requires that all contractors and subcontractors performing construction, alteration, and repair (including painting and decorating) work under federal contracts in excess of $2,000, pay their laborers and mechanics not less than the prevailing wage and fringe benefits for the geographic location. DBA requirements may be extended to federal financial assistance programs by the terms of other statutes (referred to as Davis Bacon and Related Acts (DBRA)) establishing or funding the programs. The
FY 2022 Appropriations Act provides that those
federal requirements that would apply to a CWSRF or DWSRF project grant recipient shall also apply to a grantee receiving a Community Grant, and the FY 2023 Appropriations Act directs the Agency to follow the guidance in the joint explanatory statement accompanying the FY 2022 Appropriations Act (see
Appendix A). Consequently, the FY 2023 Appropriations Act extends DBRA provisions applicable to state revolving fund projects to the Community Grants. Cl ean Water Act (CWA) Sec. 513 applies DBA requirements to projects for tre atment works. DBA requirements apply to all laborers and mechanics employed by contractors and subcontractors with job duties that are physical and manual in nature including: laborers and mechanics, watchmen or guards (under certain conditions), and working foremen (under certain conditions).
The term laborer or mechanic does not include workers whose duties are primarily administrative, executive, or clerical, rather than manual. Requirements only apply to construction at the “site of the work,” which has generally been defined as the physical place where the construction occurs. Work conducted off-site is generally not covered. EPA’s Interim Davis-Bacon Act Guidance provides additional information on requirements and compliance.
Build America, Buy America (BABA)
BABA states that: “[N]one of the funds made available for a Federal financial assistance program for infrastructure…may be obligated for a project unless all of the iron, steel, manufactured products, and construction materials used in the project are produced in the United States.” Project means any activity related to the construction, alteration, maintenance, or repair of infrastructure in the United States. This law applies to all Federal financial assistance as defined in section 2 CFR 200.1, whether funded through the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act (IIJA) or not. New awards made on or after May 14, 2022, must comply with BABA requirements. EPA provides information and guidance on BABA compliance, implementation, and any applicable waivers. Recipients are required to ensure that procurement plans comply with BABA requirements prior to grants being awarded.
15 | Page
American Iron and Steel (AIS)
The AIS provision requires recipients to use iron and steel products that are produced in the United States for the construction, alteration, maintenance, or repair of a public water system or treatment works. Compliance with AIS requirements for iron and steel products will satisfy a subset of BABA requirements (e.g., those pertaining to iron and steel); however, BABA also includes requirements pertaining to manufactured goods and construction materials, which must also be met. Projects in compliance with BABA are in compliance with AIS. EPA provides information and guidance on AIS compliance and implementation, any applicable waivers, as well as a step-by-step process for requesting waivers and the circumstances under which waivers may be granted.

Appendix C: Technical Corrections-Procedural Information
Examples of Acceptable Technical Corrections
Below are three common types of corrections that are generally acceptable. All examples assume concurrence from the original recipient and the new recipient to be named, if applicable.
Original Language
Purpose (P) or
Recipient (R)?
New Language
Anytown for wastewater
infrastructure improvements
P
Anytown for water infrastructure
improvements
Anytown for wastewater

R
Greater Anytown-Area Regional
Sewer Authority for wastewater

Anytown for wastewater
infrastructure improvements
P, R
Greater Anytown-Area Regional
Water Authority for drinking water
infrastructure improvements
Technical corrections cannot: 1) change the purpose to a non-construction project unless it otherwise provides for water quality protection; 2) change the purpose to construction of infrastructure that is not drinking, waste, or stormwater-related unless it otherwise provides for water quality protection; 3) change the purpose to debt repayment; or 4) transfer funds to another Federal Agency.
Who Can Request a Technical Correction?
Technical correction requests must be in writing and, for a change in purpose, must be originated by the original recipient. A request involving a change in recipient can be initiated by either the original recipient or the new entity to be named, but such a request requires the written concurrence of the other party. Requests involving a change in both recipient and purpose can also be initiated by either entity with concurrence from the other; however, the original earmark recipient must specifically acknowledge both the change in purpose and the change in recipient in their concurrence. Any request for technical corrections from parties other than the original recipient or the new entity will generally not be considered.
Procedure for Making a Technical Correction
Recipients requesting a technical correction should first consult their EPA Regional Contact to
discuss the need for, and evaluate the appropriateness of, a technical correction. When appropriate and necessary, the EPA Regional Office will submit technical corrections to EPA Headquarters for consultation with and resolution by Congress. 70 | Page
EPA Regional Offices provide all written requests that are consistent with this Guidance to EPA Headquarters for review and submission to the Agency’s Liaison to the House and Senate Committees on Appropriations (“Appropriations Liaison”). The Appropriations Liaison initiates consultation with the House and Senate Committees on Appropriations. EPA approves proposed corrections after the Appropriations Liaison transmits confirmation of consultation with the Committees.
12 EPA may then proceed with administering projects within the scope of approved corrected language.
When a Technical Correction is Unnecessary
All changes in the project purpose require a technical correction. All changes in the recipient require a technical correction unless the intended recipient is an agency of the original recipient or is wholly owned or controlled by the recipient (e.g., the recipient is listed as Anytown, USA, but the intended recipient is the Anytown Department of Water Quality). In such cases, a grant may be made to the intended recipient without a technical correction.
Withdrawing or Reversing a Technical Correction
Technical corrections requests that have been approved by EPA can be reversed (i.e., reverted to the original appropriation language). Reversing a technical correction requires a new technical correction following the procedures outlined above. Technical corrections requests that have not been approved by EPA Headquarters can be withdrawn. Withdrawal procedures depend on how far along the request went in the Congressional consultation process.
• If the request has not yet been provided to Congress for consultation, the request will simply be removed from the submission list. Upon confirmation from EPA Headquarters that the request was removed, the Region can proceed under the scope of the original language.
• If the request has been sent to Congress for consultation, but not yet returned, EPA Headquarters will request its removal from consideration and will notify the Region when they can proceed under the scope of the original language.
• If the consultation process was already completed, EPA will send the language reversal back to Congress in a subsequent request.
Administering a Technically Corrected Project
Technical corrections made under the technical corrections authority should be administered in accordance with the guidance document from the fiscal year of appropriation.
12 If the circumstances surrounding a technical correction for a particular project change after consultation with the Committees and EPA decides not to approve the request, EPA will notify the Committees in a subsequent request.

Workplan Requirements for Identifying Contractors
Contractual selection must comply with the competitive Procurement Standards set forth in 2 CFR 200.317 – 2 CFR 200.327
. EPA’s Contracts and Subawards solicitation clause
provides more information about partnerships, and the Best Practice Guide for Procuring 77 | Page
Services, Supplies, and Equipment Under EPA Assistance Agreements can assist community project recipients in complying with procurement requirements. In general, all procurement transactions for professional engineering services and construction contractors must be conducted in a manner that promotes fair and open competition from an adequate number of qualified sources. 2 CFR 200.320 discusses the specific methods of procurement to be followed and the circumstances under which each method can be used.
Workplan Requirements for Identifying Subrecipients
Any proposed subawards must comply with regulatory standards as implemented in EPA’s Subaward Policy.
In almost all cases, for-profit firms and individual consultants are not proper subrecipients. For-profit firms and individual consultants would more likely be considered contractors.

• Community Grant recipients may refer to Interim General Budget Development Guidance for Applicants and Recipients of EPA Financial Assistance to learn more about cost eligibility and preparation of the budget component of the application package.
Selected Items of Cost
EPA POs and grant specialists review costs included in project budgets as part of the application.
Allowability of costs is based on several factors specified in 2 CFR Part 200, Subpart E .
EPA’s Guidance on Selected Items of Cost for Recipients provides information on the allowability of specific costs.
Environmental Review
The National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) requires evaluation of how federal grant actions may affect the quality of the environment. Under NEPA, environmental impacts must be considered before EPA can award the grant.
• The Categorical Exclusion (CATEX) Checklist
provides information on assessing
whether a project may be considered for a CATEX. EPA’s list of actions that can be categorically excluded is contained within
40 CFR Part 6 Subpart B. EPA makes
CATEX determinations based on its own regulations and can use information collected as part of another federal agency’s NEPA process. Recipients having a CATEX determination resulting from another agency’s NEPA review of their project may provide that information to EPA as part of any request for a CATEX.
The following tools may be used to support development of Environmental Information Documents (EIDs).
• The sample EID Outline
provides optional format and content on what to include in an EID.
• The Infrastructure Task Force Preliminary Engineering Report provides a recommended format for preliminary engineering reports (PER) for use when planning drinking water and wastewater infrastructure.

Procurement
• EPA’s Best Practice Guide for Procuring Services, Supplies and Equipment Under EPA Assistance Agreements d escribes the financial transactions covered by the competitive procurement requirements and other rules you must follow when awarding and administering EPA funded contracts.
• Community grant recipients must follow their own procurement procedures, which must be documented and comply with State, local or tribal laws and regulation as well as Federal laws and Uniform Grant Guidance (UGG) procurement regulations. Projects inclusive of CWSRF-eligible activities, irrespective of whether such projects are co- funded with CWSRF funding, must comply with the procurement processes for architectural and engineering (A/E) services as identified in 40 U.S.C. 1101 et seq., or an equivalent State requirement.
Davis Bacon
• The Davis-Bacon Act requires that all contractors and subcontractors performing construction, alteration, and repair (including painting and decorating) work under federal contracts in excess of $2,000, pay their laborers and mechanics not less than the prevailing wage and fringe benefits for the geographic location. Personnel costs include salaries, wages, and allowable incentive compensation for recipient employees (i.e., who receive W-2 forms) who spend time working on the project and are not subject to Davis Bacon.
EPA’s Disadvantaged Business Enterprise (DBE) Program
• EPA’s DBE Program applies to all EPA Assistance Agreements and requires recipients who procure goods and/or services to: employ the good faith efforts, document their efforts and maintain DBE forms and other documentation from the prime contractor, and report their procurement and DBE activities even if there isn’t anything to report.
Build America, Buy America (BABA)
• Recipients are required to ensure that procurement plans comply with BABA
requirements prior to grants being awarded. Requirements call for all the iron, steel, manufactured products, and construction materials used in the project to be produced in the United States.
American Iron and Steel (AIS)
• The AIS provision
requires recipients to use iron and steel products that are produced in the United States for the construction, alteration, maintenance, or repair of a public water system or treatment works. Compliance with AIS requirements correspond to for iron and steel products will satisfy a subset of BABA requirements, (e.g., those pertaining to iron and steel), however BABA also includes requirements pertaining to manufactured goods and construction materials, which must also be met. Projects that are in compliance with BABA are in compliance with AIS.
