The Arkansas Natural Resources Commission (ANRC) has
REVISED the Drinking Water State
Revolving Fund (DWSRF) Intended Use Plan (IUP) and the DWSRF ARRA IUP for
the U. S. Environmental Protection Agency for State Fiscal Year 2010.
The Drinking Water IUPs were revised to add two new projects
(Glenwood and Hot Springs) that will use the $3.9 million in
unspecified ARRA Green Project Reserve funds listed in the original Drinking
Water IUPs. The DWSRF IUP
identifies loan projects in order of their priority and provides funds for
the set-aside programs administered by the Arkansas Department of Health
(Department). The ARRA IUP
identifies the projects receiving stimulus funds.
A public hearing concerning the revised IUP will be
held on November 2, 2009, at 1:00 p.m. at the ANRC office located at
101 East Capitol Avenue, Suite 350, in Little Rock.
At the hearing, ANRC and Department staff will explain the revisions
made to the IUP’s and answer questions and take comments concerning the
DWSRF program including the ARRA funds.
Oral and written comments will be accepted at the
meeting, but written comments are preferred.
Written comments for the DWSRF IUP can be sent to
Deborah Christopher at the above address or by email to
deborah.christopher@arkansas.gov.
The comment period will remain open until 4:30 p.m. on November 2,
2009. Copies of the revised
DWSRF and ARRA documents are available for public inspection at the Water
Resources Development Division of the ANRC.
The revised copies are also available on the Arkansas Recovery
website located at www.recovery.arkansas.gov and on ANRC website located at
www.anrc.arkansas.gov.
Dated this 18th day of October, 2009.
