Clean Water State Revolving Fund

EPA's Clean Water State Revolving Fund (CWSRF) provides capitalization grants to States to help finance wastewater infrastructure projects. States provide a 20 percent match and loan the funds to communities at below-market rates, with loan repayments and interest recycled back into the program.
