The Clean Water State Revolving Fund
How to Fund Nonpoint Source and
Estuary Enhancement Projects
-N t V
-------
his brochure describes the Clean Water State Revolving Fund
m (CWSRF) program, a widely available financing source for
jR water quality improvement projects. While the CWSRF has
most commonly been used to finance municipal wastewater
treatment projects, this brochure answers the most frequently asked
questions about the program's ability to fund nonpoint source and
estuary projects, key components to watershed-based water quality
management. The United States Environmental Protection Agency
(U.S. EPA) encourages the full use of the CWSRF to implement a
broad range of watershed-based activities. Examples of eligible or
actual projects are provided throughout the brochure to illustrate
the CWSRF program's potential for funding water quality activities.
-------
What Is The CWSRF?
To help address growing
needs for water pollution
control funding, Congress
created the CWSRF as part
of the Clean Water Act Amend-
ments of 1987, The CWSRF
succeeded the Construction
Grants Program, a direct
grant program for funding
wastewater treatment pro-
jects. Under the CWSRF
program, EPA provides
grants or "seed money" to
the 50 states and Puerto Rico
to capitalize individual CWSRFs.
The program is managed by the
Federal
& State
Contributions
SRF Loans
1st Round
states, and loans or other types of assistance
for water quality projects are disbursed
according to each state's program and
priorities. As the loans are repaid,
the money is reused (revolved)
by the CWSRF to provide
assistance for future
projects. Although
assistance typically is in
the form of low-interest
rate loans, the CWSRF
is a flexible source of
financing that can also
provide loan guarantees,
bond insurance, and
refinancing of existing debt.

farmers)
-------
What Are Expanded Use Activities?
Agricultuci
33%
Recognizing the need to provide funding
for water quality improvement projects that
address both point and nonpoint sources of
pollution, Congress included a broad array
of "expanded uses" in
its design of the
CWSRF program.
The CWSRF can
finance nonpoint
source pollution
control activities, as
well as the develop-
ment and implementa-
tion of Comprehen-
sive Conservation and
Management Plans
(CCMPs) associated
with the National ~"~"~"~
Estuary Program. With this flexibility the
CWSRF has the potential to be the primary
Financing source for comprehensive water-
shed management efforts.
Nonpoint and Point Sources of
Water Pollution
Other 15%
Urban Runoff/
Stormwater17%
Historically, water pollution control and
financing programs such as the construction
grants program have focused on point
sources of pollution such as municipal
wastewater (sewage)
and industrial
discharges.
Nonpoint sources
(NPSs) of water
pollution, which may
include contaminated
groundwater flow and
runoff from
agricultural and
developed land, have
received far less
attention. This is
because nonpoint
sources of pollution are harder to address,
since they are not discrete ("end-of-pipe")
pollution sources and so can be harder to
identify.
Land Disposal 5%
Hydro/Habitat
Modification 6%
Industrial 8%
Municipal 16%
-------
How Much CWSRF Funding Is Available?
As of mid-1997, almost $13 billion in
federal CWSRF capitalization grants have
been awarded to the states, which have
contributed more than $2,6 billion in
matching funds. Some states have increased
their pool of loanable funds by borrowing
additional money to "leverage" the capitali-
zation grants and matching funds. Cur-
rently, the 51 CWSRFs have $21 billion
available to fund priority water quality
projects. States have used their CWSRFs to
make approximately 5,900 loans totalling
$17,1 billion-$16.6 billion for wastewater
treatment and $531 million for expanded use
activities.

Landfill Design, Monitoring, and Upgrades
In Alaska, monitoring, upgrading, and design-
ing landfills while protecting groundwater can
be challenging - the presence of permafrost in
many areas is just one complicating factor.
Alaskan cities have used the CWSRF to fund
three different stages of landfill-related ground-
water protection projects. Anchorage used a
$10 million loan to finance monitoring weds,
new cells, and leachate controls, Nome
borrowed $2 million of CWSRF monies to
construct a new landfill. Kotzebue is using a
$600,000 CWSRF loan to finance design of a
new landfill. All three cities have identified
landfill tipping/user fees as the dedicated source
of revenue to repay the CWSRF.

What Projects
To be funded, expanded use projects must
be part of an EPA-approved state Nonpoint
Source Management Plans or part of the
National Estuary Program protection efforts.
The Clean Water Act nonpoint source
program (authorized by Section 319 of the
Act) identifies specific activities for control-
ling nonpoint sources of pollution and
identifies both implementing agencies and
potential funding sources. Activities that
may be included in nonpoint source man-
agement programs are implementation of
best management practices, storm water
management projects, and education.
Examples of projects that are part of ap-
proved Nonpoint Source Management Plans
and that have received CWSRF funding
include:
Are Eligible?
New York: Storm water management
facilities including sediment basins and
constructed wetlands,
Ohio: Best management practices for
agricultural nonpoint source control.
California: Reduction of urban pollutant
loading to protect wetlands.
Washington: Repair or replacement of on-
site septic systems to reduce nonpoint
source pollution.
Under the authority of the nonpoint source
section of the Clean Water Act, states can
also use CWSRF assistance to support
implementation of ground water protection
strategies. Most of these efforts have
addressed landfills or failing septic systems
threatening ground water and public water
Wetlands Purchase
The city of Port Townsend, Washington, was
simultaneously able to meet storm water
management objectives and a wetlands
preservation directive by using the CWSRF to
purchase the area known as the Winona
Wetlands. The wetlands currently serve as a
critical stormwater basin for the area and also
provide a valuable wildlife habitat. Potential
development in the area not only threatened the
wetlands but also would result in storm water
management problems. By purchasing the
wetlands, the city was able to protect a natural
storm water management system as well as a
wildlife refuge. The city purchased 6.5 acres in
Phase ! and is currently planning to borrow
additional CWSRF funds for a Phase II purchase
of 9 acres. A portion of the city's storm water
utility fee charged to households is being used to
repay the CWSRF.

The Clean Water Act National Estuary
Program (authorized by Section 320 of the
Act) addresses estuaries of national impor-
tance. CWSRF funds may be used to
develop and implement Comprehensive
Conservation and Management Plans, the
guiding documents for addressing water
quality initiatives in estuaries covered by the
Clean Water Act. Specific project types
eligible for CWSRF funds include wetland
protection and restoration projects. One
such project in Washington involved the
actual purchase of wetlands. Not only did
the purchase prevent the wetlands from
being developed but it also preserved an
integral part of the purchasing
municipality's stormwater control system.
Many activities that assist in preventing
pollution of estuaries may also be funded as
nonpoint source activities if included in the
EPA-approved state Nonpoint Source
Management Plan. For example, Maryland's
CWSRF funded nonpoint source projects to
cap landfills and treat landfill leachates in an
effort to protect the Chesapeake Bay.
A state-by-state summary is included at
the end of this brochure that identifies
additional examples of expanded use
projects and provides contacts to discuss the
projects.

Who Can Qualify for a CWSRF
Expanded Use Loan?
CWSRF loans for expanded use projects
are available to public or private entities,
including individuals, who have eligible
projects and can identify a dedicated loan
repayment source. Please note that project
eligibility varies from state to state accord-
ing to each state's CWSRF program priori-
ties and rules. To find out whether you may
be eligible to take advantage of CWSRF
assistance, please contact the appropriate

Animal Waste Facilities Construction and Related Equipment Purchase
As a group, farmers tend to place a high value
on preserving and protecting natural resources.
The Missouri CWSRF has helped the state's
farmers achieve these goals. Historically, animal
waste has been a major contributor to ground-
water contamination in the state's agricultural
areas. The Missouri Agricultural and Small
Business Development Authority (MASBDA) is
borrowing CWSRF funds and reloaning them to
farmers so they can purchase animal waste
collection equipment and construct animal
waste storage and distribution facilities. This not
only helps eliminate a major source of both
surface and groundwater contamination, but
also provides the farmers with valuable material.
The animal waste is used to irrigate row crops or
pastures, providing both water and nutrients. In
many instances the irrigation equipment is also
financed through the CWSRF.
The CWSRF lends funds to the MASBDA at an
interest rate of 3%, which in turn lends them to
farmers at interest rates of 5% to 6%. The
difference in the interest rate is being used to
fund a reserve account and has allowed the
MASBDA to identify the farmers as the dedicated
source of revenue to repay the CWSRF.

What Loan Repayment Options
With traditional wastewater projects, the
CWSRF enters into a loan agreement with a
municipality or wastewater authority that
pledges repayment through facility user
charges. With nonpoint source control or
other expanded use projects, specific user
charges may not be available to dedicate for
loan repayment and another repayment
source will need to be identified.
CWSRFs have worked with loan
recipients to develop flexible repayment
mechanisms, and recognize creative
approaches to repayment that are acceptable
to the loan recipient and the CWSRF.
Examples of repayment sources include
establishing or dedicating:
Exist for Expanded Use Projects?
* Leasing fees
» Plant sales
Storm water utility fees
Loan repayments
» Solid waste tipping fees
» Tax revenue
Water utility revenues
While the ultimate source of repayment
for expanded use loans may often be the
loan recipient, the dedicated repayment
source identified in the CWSRF loan
application need not be directly from the
assistance recipient. The repayment source
can and often has been entirely independent
from the recipient and/or the water quality
project (e.g., property taxes).
The linked deposit program was created as
a mechanism to make loans to individuals
{usually farmers) proposing projects that are
consistent with area watershed management
plans. In the linked deposit program, SRF
funds equal to the required project funds are
placed in a Certificate of Deposit with a
private bank. The interest rate on the CD is
discounted below the bank's normal cost of
funds. The difference between the cost of
funds and the interest rate is used to subsi-
dize the interest rate the bank charges on
project loans (approximately a 3% subsidy).
Loan recipients take a letter of project
approval to the bank and borrow funds at a
negotiated rate of interest. The loan recipient
repays the loan to the bank over time. The
bank uses loan repayments to pay the

What Are the Advantages of Using
CWSRF Funding for Expanded Use Activities?
Favorable Terms
CWSRF assistance is usually offered on
advantageous terms: loans with interest rates
at or below market rates, and a repayment
period as long as 20 years beginning one
year after project completion.
Administrative Ease
CWSRF assistance recipients will receive
help with applying and qualifying for the
program, ensuring a smooth process even
for first-time recipients.
Significant Source of Financing
The CWSRF is a significant source of
financing that allows states and communities
to undertake critical water quality projects
that otherwise might not be addressed.
Achieve Environmental Results
The CWSRF is a federally funded environ-
mental program with a focus on achieving
environmental benefit through needed
financial assistance.
Septic System Repair Loan Program
Delaware's expanded use of the CWSRF is
providing homeowners with an incentive to
repair failing septic systems, a significant con-
tributor to both surface and groundwater con-
tamination. Using CWSRF funds, the state has
established a septic system repair loan program
that offers homeowners loans with more attrac-
tive terms than they could secure in the commer-
cial market. Loans of up to $10,000 are made
directly from the CWSRF to individual home-
owners and carry a 3% interest rate with repay-
ment periods of up to 20 years. The state per-
forms a financial capability analysis on each
applicant, including obtaining a personal credit
report. Applicants must own the property, since
a lien is placed on the property to secure the
loan. Once the repairs are made, a Department
of Natural Resources representative inspects the
system. The two-year-old program has financed
the repair of more than 100 systems.

Barnes Creek Biofiltration, Wetland, and Detention Facility
The city of Des Moines, Washington, is using
CWSRF funds to purchase and reconstruct a
badly degraded wetland area and to construct a
sediment trap/pond facility. This project is
allowing the city to meet two goals it constantly
struggles to achieve: flood protection and
wetlands preservation and enhancement. The
project will be completed in three phases:
planning (1996), design (1997), and construction
(1998-99). The CWSRF will, at a minimum,
fund phases I and II, Area stormwater will enter
one of two sediment traps by way of the
surrounding reconstructed wetlands. The
wetlands serve the dual purpose of providing
flood protection by containing stormwater
runoff, and acting as a preliminary filter by
removing suspended solids. The majority of
sediment and any heavy metal removal will
occur while the water is in the sediment traps.
The water will then leave the traps through
artificial inlets that lead to Barnes Creek, which
eventually enters Puget Sound.

How Do I Apply
Each state has a similar process for
selecting projects to receive CWSRF
financing. The general CWSRF loan process
in your state may consists of these steps:
Loan Application
Discussing your project with a state
CWSRF representative and obtaining an
application if appropriate.
Completing an application form which
may require applicants to:
- Identify the environmental needs and
cost of the project;
- Describe the proposed project, and
complete project-specific documents,
such as design documents, engineering
plans, permits, state agency approvals,
for a CWSRF Loan?
and contract documentation;
- Identify a dedicated revenue source to
repay the loan; and
- Include project financial information,
such as project capital and operating and
maintenance costs.
Project Selection
To be selected, projects must meet certain
program requirements and various federal
laws and regulations. For example,
expanded use projects must be identified
as part of an approved state Nonpoint
Source Management Program or ground
water protection strategy, or must be part
of the development or implementation of a
National Estuary Program Comprehensive
Subsurface Drainage Recycling
An expanded use of the CWSRF has allowed Project Profile
the Pacheco Water District in California to
recycle subsurface drainage water while at the
same time reducing the levels of selenium and
salinity of drainage waters entering local rivers.
CWSRF funds have been used to construct
ponds to collect high-salt subsurface drainage.
Water that cannot be discharged into rivers is
pumped through newly-constructed canals (also
financed with CWSRF funds) and combined with
clean water to produce a mix that is used by
local growers for irrigation purposes. The
collection ponds and canals constructed with
CWSRF funds not only divert high-salt water
from entering the local rivers but also allow the
District to control salt loading in the area. This
has benefitted the area lowlands, where
topographical conditions historically have
resulted in their receiving a disproportionate
amount of salt from area discharge.

projects must also be identified in the
state's CWSRF Intended Use Plan.
* Applications are often accepted and re-
viewed on an annual cycle. States that use
lending conduits, such as Ohio's Linked
Deposit program (see the example of this
program on page 8), may have a different
schedule for submitting applications. To
be considered for the next round of
financing, you should discuss with your
state CWSRF staff when the next deadline
is for submitting applications.
Loan Contract Agreement
»The loan agreement formalizes the terms
of the CWSRF financial assistance to be
provided. The agreement is a legal
document that commits the CWSRF to
fund the project and commits the borrower
to certain terms and conditions for
proceeding with the project and repaying
the loan. The loan agreement will
contain:
- A loan amortization schedule that
specifies the anticipated loan principal
and interest payments over time;
- A pledge by you to dedicate the revenue
source identified in your application;
and
- A certification that you will comply with
all program requirements.
* Typically, you will be given a draft of the
loan agreement and other loan documents
to review with your attorney before formal
loan closing.
Project Start and Loan Disbursement
* After your project commences and as
construction proceeds, you will typically
submit monthly requests for loan disburse-
ments from the CWSRF based upon
incurred costs. Disbursement requests
will require certain documentation, such
as contractor invoices, and a certification
that funds were properly expended.
Project Completion and Loan Repayment
Within one year after project completion, loan
repayments will begin based on the final loan
amortization schedule. In general, you have
20 years or less to pay the loan back.
