Establishes a grant program for municipal water infrastructure planning and design projects in New Jersey, with a $100 million appropriation.
The bill establishes a grant program within the Department of Environmental Protection (DEP) to fund planning and design projects for water infrastructure. The program aims to support municipalities in upgrading their water infrastructure and accessing federal and state funds. The maximum grant per project is $2 million, and municipalities do not need to provide matching funds to be eligible. The DEP will prioritize grants for projects in overburdened communities and will develop guidelines, criteria, and terms for the grant program.
