Engagement on State Intended Use Plans

EPIC provides analysis and submits public comments on state Intended Use Plans (IUPs) in collaboration with other state groups and community-based organizations, offering specific recommendations to improve state policies.

Our comments focus on policies that determine which communities benefit from State Revolving Funds (SRFs), with the aim of directing more funding, particularly grants and principal forgiveness, to under-resourced communities. We also recommend how states can ensure their SRF investments support water systems and communities that are more resilient to financial concerns and external challenges.
