Bill overview
The Local Water Protection Act aims to improve water quality by strengthening programs that help states manage nonpoint source pollution. Specifically, it reauthorizes and increases funding for the EPA’s Section 319 program, which provides grants to states for projects focused on reducing pollution from sources like agricultural runoff and stormwater. This legislation provides dedicated funding over five years to support these state-level initiatives. The goal is to protect both surface water and groundwater resources.
