Emergency Community Water Assistance Grants in Maryland

From USDA: Rural Development (RD)

We are committed to helping improve the economy and quality of life in rural America.

Type of Support

Overview

The grant program seeks to assist eligible communities in preparing for or recovering from emergencies that compromise the availability of safe, reliable drinking water. This encompasses a wide range of emergencies including, but not limited to, droughts, floods, earthquakes, tornadoes or hurricanes, disease outbreaks, and chemical spills. Financial support is available through two main avenues: water transmission line grants of up to $150,000 for projects like waterline extensions and repairs, and water source grants up to $1,000,000 for the construction of new water sources, intake, or treatment facilities. The primary goal is to ensure that households and businesses in rural areas have the infrastructure necessary to prevent damage from natural disasters or swiftly restore access to clean drinking water following such events, thereby supporting the broader mission of enhancing the natural environment and encouraging economic growth in these communities. Applications are accepted on a rolling basis through online platforms and local RD offices.
