Overview
Since the inception of the Drinking Water State Revolving Fund in 1996, as an amendment to the Safe Drinking Water Act, public water systems in Delaware had just three options for financing infrastructure improvements: traditional bank lending, USDA (United States Department of Agriculture) Rural Development loans, and the Drinking Water State Revolving Fund (DWSRF).
Today, thanks to innovative thinking within the DWSRF program and the additional $5 million in the 2021 Bond Bill Appropriation, there are more financing/funding options to consider: traditional low-interest loans, the Non-Federal Administration Account funds, and the Bond Bill Appropriation.
