Introduction
Tribal communities and Native Alaskan Villages face 'significant human health and
environmental problems due to the lack of adequate wastewater treatment systems. The
United States Environmental Protection Agency's (EPA) Office of Wastewater
Management (QWM) is committed to work with the tribes, EPA Regional offices, federal
agencies, national organizations, non-profit associations and others to help secure adequate
wastewater treatment and disposal systems in Indian Country. The OWM recognizes that in
addition to financial assistance, other sources of support are necessary to build tribal capacity to
manage their environmental programs. ,
To this end, OWM has published the "Clean Water Tribal Resource Directory for Wastewater
Treatment Assistance ". This publication is intended for use by Indian tribes and tribal
environmental organizations to assist in identifying financial and technical assistance programs
targeted to tribes. It can also be explored by federal representatives as a reference document in
answering questions on sources of funding and technical support for tribal wastewater
infrastructure.
Section one provides an overview of those federal agencies, national tribal organizations,
technical assistance organizations and resource centers that provide financial, technical, and
information support for wastewater treatment. Section two is organized by the 10 EPA Regional
offices. For each EPA Region, a detailed listing of each federal agency and technical assistance
organizations with field offices within the regional office boundary is included, along with
telephone numbers and other contact information.
- « ' i
If you wish to receive additional copies of this Resource Directory, please contact the U.S.
EPA Office of Water Resource Center at (202) 260-7786 and refer to document number EPA-

UNITED STATES ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION AGENCY
Clean Water (CW) Indian Set-Aside (ISA) Grant Program,
Section 518(c) of.the 1987 Amendments to the Clean Water Act authorized EPA to create a grant
program to help pay for the planning, design, and construction of wastewater treatment systems
to serve Indian tribes and Alaska Native Villages. This EPA grant program for wastewater
projects is run by Indian Set-Aside (ISA) representatives at nine of EPA's 10 Regional offices in
cooperation with the 12 Area offices of the Indian Health Service (IHS), All federally recognized
tribes, Alaska Native Villages, and tribes on former reservations in Oklahoma are .eligible to
receive a grant. To be eligible for ISA funding, a project must first be placed on the IHS
Sanitation Deficiency System (SDS) priority list. ISA funds may be used for planning, design,
and construction,of wastewater projects, including conventional or alternative treatment facilities,
collector and interceptor sewers, and onsite (septic) systems. Clean Water Indian Set-Aside
contacts for each EPA Region are provided in Section 2 of this document

EPA's American Indian Environmental Office (AIEO) and General Assistance Program
'" V:' ' (GAP) . ' ' ' '
The mission of EPA's AIEO is to coordinate the Agency-wide effort to strengthen public health
and environmental protection in Indian country, with a special emphasis on building tribal
capacity to administer their own environmental programs. To this end, the office offers the
Indian Environmental General Assistance Program (GAP), which provides grant assistance
for planning, developing and establishing environmental management programs. Construction
projects are NOT eligible. Examples of fundable activities under this program include: planning,
hiring staff, monitoring, and assessing environmental resources and pollution threats. AIEO
oversees development and implementation of the Agency's Indian Policy and strives to ensure that
all EPA Headquarters and Regional Offices implement their parts of the Agency's Indian Program
consistently with Administration policy. Each EPA Region with federally recognized tribes has
a Regional Indian Coordinator. The Regional Indian Program Coordinator also administers the
GAP for each Region. Contact information for each EPA Regional Indian Program Coordinator
is provided in Section 2 of this document.

Drinking Water Indian Set-Aside Grant Program
This is a new EPA grant program to build or repair drinking water infrastructure. It is funded with
a 1.5 percent set-aside from the annual appropriation for the drinking water state revolving fund
(DWSRF), which was launched with passage of the Safe Drinking Water Act (SDWA)
Amendments of 1966. A significant difference between this program and the wastewater ISA
program is that the Drinking Water (DW) Indian Set-Aside (ISA) Grant Program will not
require projects to be on the Indian Health Service (IHS) Sanitation Deficiency System priority
list. It will be up to EPA Regional offices to identify and rank priority projects as long as they
meet the SDWA requirements of public health protection arid regulatory compliance. The
Regional EPA offices may elect to use the IHS ranking system in full, in part, or not at all.
Eligible systems must serve tribes or Alaskan Native Villages, though they can be owned by
someone other than the tribe. Private systems are also eligible. DW ISA contacts for, each EPA
Region are provided in Section 2 of this document.

Economic Development Administration (EDA)
The Economic Development Administration (EDA) was established under the Public Works and
Economic Development Act of 1965, as amended (PWEDA) (P.L. 89-136; 42 U.S.C. 3121 et
seq.), and it was recently (October, 1998) reauthorized and its programs reformed under the
Economic Development Administration and Appalachian Regional Development Reform Act of
1998 (S 2364; 105th Congress, 2nd Session). EDA provides grants for projects located in
economically distressed areas, both rural and urban, of the Nation through its Public Works and
Development Facilities, Planning, Technical Assistance, and Economic Adjustment
Assistance Program. Indian tribes are eligible for EDA grant assistance. Direct grants may be
awarded for up to 50 percent of the total estimated costs of the project and, in the case of Indian
tribes, EDA is authorized to provide supplementary grant assistance up to an additional 50 percent
depending on the nature of the project, the severity of distress and the relative needs of the area.
EDA's funds are tied to economic development and private-sector job creation and/or retention
and can include grants for water and wastewater facilities, technology, projects, sustainable
development activities, export programs, brownfields redevelopment and other technical
assistance and infrastructure projects. The program is primarily intended to benefit low and
moderate income populations, unemployed and underemployed residents and to help stop
outmigration as well as to assist areas facing sudden economic dislocations due to industrial
restructuring and relocation, defense base closures, procurement cutbacks and natural disasters.
EDA announces its funding availability and application procedures annually in the Federal
Register and project selection criteria are promulgated at 13 CFR Chapter HI, Parts 300 through

Bureau of Reclamation
Indian tribes seeking needs assessments for wastewater treatment services may seek help from the
U. S. Department of the Interior's Bureau of Reclamation., which can provide assistance to the
Native American communities located throughout the Nation. The Bureau established a Native
American Affairs Office in 1989. It is supported by five Regional Native American Program
Managers. Through contact with these Regional Managers, the Bureau's Technical Service
Center's Water Treatment Engineering Team in Denver, Colorado, can provide technical
assistance to tribes for wastewater needs assessments. -These services often result in a site visit
followed by a needs assessment report that describes the existing wastewater systems ability to
meet the needs of tribal community and the environment. The needs assessment also provides
conceptual alternatives for the required remedies, and an appraisal level cost analysis for the
proposed solutions considering existing and future discharges. Some of this may augment
technical assistance work done by the Indian Health Service.
The Bureau of Reclamation can also offer planning, design, construction management and
operation and maintenance assistance on a cost reimbursable basis or as required by congressional
mandates. Contact information for Bureau of Reclamation offices in each EPA Region is
provided in Section 2 of this document.

Bureau of Reclamation
Technical Service Center's Water Treatment Engineering Team
Through contact with the Bureau of Reclamation's Regional Native American Program Managers,
the Bureau's Technical Service Center's Water Treatment Engineering Team in Denver, Colorado,
can provide technical assistance to tribes for conducting needs assessments for wastewater
treatment systems. Although the Bureau of Reclamation focuses primarily on water resources,
services for wastewater include evaluating the adequacy of existing wastewater systems,
reviewing design data for proposed wastewater 'treatment systems for compliance with regulatory
requirements, and generating a needs assessment report that describes existing conditions,
identifies problems, describes the required remedies, and provides a cost analysis for proposed
solutions to meet existing and future wastewater treatment needs. This needs assessment report
can provide Indian tribes with the data necessary to approach the Indian Health Service and
request documentation of a water-quality-related deficiency.
The Bureau of Reclamation can also offer planning, design, construction management and
operation and maintenance assistance on a cost reimbursable basis or as required by congressional
mandates. Contact information for Bureau of; Reclamation offices in each EPA Region is
