Latta earns environmental award for service
The National Association of Clean Water Agencies today presented Congressman Bob Latta , R-Bowling Green,
with its National Environmental Achievement Award for Federal Public Service. The award recognizes
Latta’s contributions in promoting affordability of wastewater infrastructure projects for communities
and his sponsorship of H.R. 3862, the Clean Water Affordability Act. The legislation aims to provide
relief and flexibility for communities with mandated, extensive water infrastructure projects.
The Clean Water Affordability Act amends the Federal Water Pollution Control Act, updating the
Environmental Protection Agency’s (EPA) clean water affordability policy to assist municipalities that
cannot meet unfunded mandates to improve their wastewater infrastructure projects. Under the bill, loan
repayment periods for municipalities would be extended from 20 years to 30 years. Municipalities will
also receive up to 30 years for project implementation schedules. In addition, the legislation will
allow states to use up to 30 percent of total capitalization grants received by the state as grant
funds.
