Summary: Supports construction, improvement, and financing of water infrastructure projects across Kansas municipalities and special water districts.
The Water Projects Fund Grants are administered by the Kansas Water Office as part of the State Water Infrastructure Grant Program. These grants are designed to address urgent water quantity and quality needs in Kansas by funding the construction, repair, maintenance, and replacement of water-related infrastructure. The program also provides mechanisms for matching funds for other grants or loans and, under certain criteria, can be used to pay down outstanding loan balances for specific state loan programs. The initiative aims to foster sustainable water management and enhance the resilience of Kansas communities.
