Arizona’s clean water supply will have over $12M in investment

Arizona Senators Sinema and Kelly helped secure over $12 million to improve water quality in Arizona

(KYMA, KECY) - Senators Kyrsten Sinema and Mark Kelly were able to secure $12,021,000 to help improve Arizona's clean water supply.

Funds from the bipartisan infrastructure law were assigned to Arizona through the Environmental Protection Agency's Clean Water State Revolving Fund program that provides low-cost financing for water quality infrastructure projects.

“As Arizona continues facing record drought conditions, a clean and safe water supply is crucial to securing our state’s future. The $12 million investment we secured from our bipartisan infrastructure law strengthens and protects Arizonans’ access to clean water, so communities and families across our state can continue to thrive,” said Sinema, co-author and lead negotiator of the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs law.

“Clean water is critical for communities across our state and our economy, especially as we deal with a historic drought. That’s why we made water a priority in the bipartisan infrastructure law, and now these funds will support the construction of water projects across Arizona,” said Kelly.
