ACWA submitted informal comments to the Office of Water on the FY 2022-2023 National Program Guidance (NWPG).  The NWPG is a tool that states, tribes, and local partners can use to help EPA realize its goal of implementing effective programs to monitor, protect, and improve America’s water while fostering economic growth. The NWPG is issued on a two-year cycle with an optional addendum in the second year to address any significant changes. The development process begins with early engagement with state partners and is intended to identify common priorities to inform development of the NWPG.
