Audit of EPA Clean Water Aid: Ensuring Effective Infrastructure Support.

This law mandates an independent review of all Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) programs providing technical assistance for clean water infrastructure. The goal is to assess whether this aid is effective, reaches the most vulnerable communities, and promotes modern, cost-saving technologies. Citizens stand to benefit from potentially better managed federal support for local water systems, leading to improved service quality and efficiency.
Key points
Independent Audit: The Government Accountability Office (GAO) must conduct a comprehensive review of how the EPA manages and spends funds on water infrastructure support programs.
Focus on Need and Innovation: The review will assess if aid effectively reaches economically distressed communities and promotes cost-effective, alternative water treatment technologies.
