Updated EPA Stimulus Information

AGC has compiled a chart that contains information about EPA-funded stimulus projects on a state-by-state basis.  To date the EPA has distributed over $5.2 billion dollars to states including $864 million for American Indian and Alaska Native communities.  Click here to download a copy of the chart, which includes state intended use plans where available. Additionally, the EPA has recently identified Tribal Clean and Drinking Water Projects totaling $90 million dollars. Tribal Clean Water Projects (PDF) Tribal Drinking Water Projects (PDF) Unfortunately AGC finds no evidence that a significant amount of contracts funded by EPA stimulus dollars are currently soliciting bids for a variety of reasons, including confusion about new regulatory requirements like the Buy American provisions and "green infrastructure" requirements that have not typically applied to the SRF programs. If you have information about issues causing delays in your stat,e it is critical that you communicate this information to AGC of America or your local AGC Chapter.  For additional information on the stimulus, please visit the AGC of America Stimulus Web site by clicking here.
