This funding from the Environmental Protection Agency’s Clean Water State Revolving Fund will be used to upgrade and modernize wastewater and stormwater infrastructure throughout Maryland. This funding builds on the $2.4 billion announced for clean water infrastructure upgrades nationwide through the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act.
