New Security Rules for Federal Water Infrastructure Projects

This bill mandates financial security measures for large, federally funded water infrastructure projects. This change protects taxpayer money by ensuring that essential projects are completed even if the main contractor encounters financial difficulties. Furthermore, these security requirements guarantee that subcontractors and suppliers working on these vital investments are paid for their services, increasing stability in the construction sector.
Key points
Mandatory payment and performance security requirements for all federally supported water infrastructure projects.
Financial protection for subcontractors and suppliers, minimizing the risk of non-payment for services rendered.
Increased assurance that investments in clean water and sanitation will be delivered on time and within budget, protecting public funds.
