\"\"<\/p>\n

In an effort to accelerate the removal of lead in drinking water, the Virginia Office of Drinking Water (ODW) has made funding available to reduce children's exposure to lead in schools and child care facilities. ODW is soliciting applications for projects in disadvantaged communities that will expedite this goal. Projects that receive assistance under this program may include the removal and\/or replacement of lead-containing drinking water fixtures, fountains, outlets, and plumbing materials. These funds are awarded on a competitive basis and provided as 100% principal forgiveness (grant). Please note, ODW can only provide reimbursement for remediation actions under a pre-existing contract through the grant program.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Please check back for updates on available funding, the application process, and other information regarding the next grant cycle competition.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>
