Rural
Community Development Activities Program
The
Rural Community Development Activities Program supports low-income
communities in the development of community facilities that
include affordable, safe water and waste water treatment facilities.
Activities may include providing training and technical assistance
in developing and managing water facilities in rural areas;
improving the coordination of Federal, State and local agencies
in water waste management; and distributing information to local
communities on available Federal assistance.
This
program is administered region-wide to assist small rural, low-income
communities in the construction or repair/rehabilitation of
water and waste water systems and in meeting requirements placed
upon them by the Clear Water Act and the Safe Drinking Water
Act.
Funding
is available through competitive discretionary grants, and multi-State,
regional private non-profit organizations are eligible to apply.
