The Drinking Water State Revolving Fund (DWSRF) is a loan program which provides low-cost financing to eligible entities within the state and tribal lands for public and private water systems infrastructure projects needed to achieve or to maintain compliance with SDWA requirements and to protect public health. Small water systems and disadvantage communities are given higher funding priority.

Under the CWSRF & DWSRF programs, EPA Region 4 provides grants to the states of Alabama, Florida, Georgia, Kentucky, Mississippi, North Carolina, South Carolina and Tennessee to capitalize each state's revolving loan fund. The states implement the program by making low interest loans to municipalities for eligible clean water and drinking water infrastructure projects according to each states' priority system. Tribes are also eligible for funding under these programs.
