More than $79 million in federal funds slated for water infrastructure in Kansas

U.S. Rep. Sharice Davids applauded the Environmental Protection Agency’s announcement that Kansas will receive $79,430,000 from the bipartisan infrastructure law to address drinking water and wastewater systems. This 2022 allocation is the first of five years of dedicated State Revolving Fund water funding that Kansas will receive through the Davids-backed bipartisan infrastructure law. This announcement marks the first official round of funding for Kansas from the bipartisan infrastructure law and will be used to create jobs, upgrade aging water infrastructure, and deliver safe, lead-free drinking water across the state, according to Rep. Davids.
