Opportunities to Fund Infrastructure Maintenance and New Construction

Reclamation's infrastructure endures through preventive maintenance programs and substantial investment in major rehabilitation and replacement activities. Exploring funding opportunities can help Reclamation and its partners to better meet the challenges presented by new and competing demands on the Nation's water and power infrastructure.

This list of funding programs should not be considered comprehensive, and funding availability is subject to change on an annual basis. Furthermore, federally-owned facilities may or may not be eligible for funding under these different mechanisms. For more information about program eligibility and requirements, please visit individual program pages or contact the Asset Management Division of the Dam Safety and Infrastructure Directorate.

State and Local Funding Opportunities

Most states have funding opportunities for infrastructure improvements and new construction. Water, environmental, natural resource, park, transportation, and commerce agencies are often good starting points. Local resources at the county or municipal level may be available as well.
