The number of requests for the latest round of the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency’s water infrastructure loan program is down from the fiscal 2018 competition but the loan dollars requested exceed the $6 billion that the agency has to lend.
EPA said on July 19 that it received 51 letters of interest for the 2019 round of its Water Infrastructure Finance and Innovation Act (WIFIA) loan program, compared with 62 requests last year.
