INTRODUCTION
This Handbook was compiled to assist State and Tribal ground water managers in
identifying existing EPA ground water-related grants that may support the development and
implementation of Comprehensive State Ground Water Protection Programs (CSGWPPs).
Under EPA’s new ground water protection strategy, as set forth in Protecting the Nation’s Ground
Water: EPA’S Strategy for the 1990s, CSGWPPs will build on current State activities to fill in the
gaps in protecting the Nation’s vital ground water resources. The Agency is also working to
actively involve Tribes in developing ground water protection programs. As a result of initial
efforts to define CSGWPPs, EPA and the States have identified six strategic activities that
constitute CSGWPPs. These six are:
1) Establish a common ground water protection goal across all relevant
programs in the State.
2) Establish priorities, based on characterization of the resource, identification
of sources of contamination and programmatic needs, to direct all relevant
programs and activities in the State towards the most efficient and effective
means of achieving the State’s common protection goal.
3) Define roles, authorities, responsibilities, resources and coordinating
mechanisms across relevant Federal, State, Tribal and local authorities for
addressing identified priorities.
4) Implement necessary efforts to accomplish the State’s ground water
protection goal consistent with the State’s priorities and schedules.
5) Coordinate information collection and management to measure progress,
re-evaluate priorities, and support all related programs.
6) Improve public education and participation in all aspects of ground water
protection, so as to achieve support of the State’s protection goal, priorities
and programs.
This Handbook includes summaries of 15 EPA grant programs, including one program
that is jointly administered with the U.S. Department of Agriculture. It describes how each of
these grants can be used to support one or more of the six CSGWPP strategic activities and the
restrictions on using grants to support those activities. Information on grant eligibility
requirements and other considerations is also included in the program summaries. Appendix 1
consists of a table that compares selected information on each grant program’s uses, restrictions
and FY 93 estimated funding. Most of the grants summarized in this Handbook are awarded
annually, and are competed and managed on a Regional basis. For more specific information on
grant requirements and on how to apply for grants, please contact the EPA Regional grants
management contacts listed in Appendix 2. EPA Headquarters’ Offices listed in the individual
program summaries can provide general program information.

TYPE OF GRt’vr: Performance Grants.
PROGRAM
OBJECTIVES: To assist in implementing EPA-approved §319 nonpoint source management programs.
How GRANTS At least 10 percent of each State’s annual §319 work program should be devoted to
c BE USED TO priority ground water protection activities. This portion of §319 grants can be used to
ç assist States in assessing and characterizing ground water resources and establishing a
UPPORT basis for identi1 ing prionty protection needs prior to undertaking any site-specific
CSGWPPs: measures If States already have a good basis for determining their ground water
priorities, they should use their §319 funds to implement efforts to address these
priorities. Where necessary, funded projects should focus on increasing the State’s
institutional capabilities, capacity for implementing programs and capabilities that
advance States toward implementation of comprehensive nonpoint source control
programs (e g., resource characterization, ground water assessments and establishment
of monitoring networks). These activities relate closely to CSGWPP strategic
activities.
RESTRICTIONS ON Only priority ground water activities identified in approved §319 management
USES FOR programs are eligible for §319(h) grants, either through direct identification in the
CSGWPP program or through incorporation by reference to the State’s Ground Water
Protection Strategy or Program.
ELIGIBILITY States, the District of Columbia, American Samoa, Guam, the Northern Mariana
Islands, Puerto Rico, Pacific Trust Terntories and the Virgin Islands, and Indian Tribes

CoNsIDERATIoNs: allotment under §205(c) of the Clean Water Act or $100,000, whichever is greater, for
the purposes of developing and implementing the State’s nonpoint source program.
Section 201(g)(1)(B) allows a State to use up to 20 percent of §205(c) allotments for
these purposes Section 319(h) grants are allocated to the EPA Regions by a formula
Section 319 grants require a 40 percent non-Federal match. Final grant awards are
determined by EPA Regional Offices based on the quality of past and anticipated
future performance by the State in implementing State Nonpoint Source Management
Programs.
PROGRAM (Grants) FY 91, $48 million; FY 92, $52.5 million, and FY 93 estimate, (Not

OBJECTIVES: of surface and ground water pollution
How GRANTS Section 106 grants supplement State resources for water pollution control programs.
CAN BE USED TO Work programs for the use of these grants are negotiated annually with 50 Slates, 7
Territories, 6 Interstate Agencies and qualified Indian Tribes. Funds are used to carry
UPPORT out a wide range of water quality programs, including permit issuance, enforcement,
CSGWPPS: water quality monitoring, water quality planning and standards, wasteloaci allocations,
pretreatment and ground water programs
The portion of §106 grants available for ground water protection can be used to
support all of the strategic activities of CSGWPPs: setting goals; characterizing the
resource, identifying sources of contamination and setting priorities, defining roles,
authorities, responsibilities and coordination mechanisms, implementing prevention
and control activities; conducting mformation collection and management; and
improving public education and participation.
In addition to the specific ground water elements of §106, remaining §106 funds
targeted to surface water activities could also support broad needs of a CSGWPP,
particularly where surface water programs need to consider cross-media impacts
including ground water contamination. For example, §106 surface water funds could
support CSGWPP planning and programmatic efforts to reduce or eliminate the
potential impact that surface water measures under sewage sludge and stormwater
management programs, watershed protection programs and the National Pollutant
Discharge Elimination System Program might have on ground water quahty
RESTRICTIONS ON Since emphasis of §106 is water quality . §106 ground water grants cannot be used for
USES FOR activities primarily related to ground water quantity/allocation. Also, where a statute
I’c ’riUDD precludes award of a grant to support a program because certain requirements have
L J JP 1 S. not yet been met, §106 ground water grants cannot be used to support activities under
