Summary of Bill HR 10389

Bill 118 hr 10389, also known as the Safe Drinking Water Act Amendment, aims to make several changes to the existing Safe Drinking Water Act. The bill specifically focuses on adjusting the limits for technical assistance, grants for small systems, and the authorization of appropriations for the Drinking Water Infrastructure Risk and Resilience Program.

One of the key provisions of the bill is to increase the limits for technical assistance provided under the Safe Drinking Water Act. This would allow for more resources and support to be available to communities in need of assistance in maintaining safe drinking water systems.

This program focuses on improving the resilience of drinking water infrastructure to natural disasters and other threats, ensuring that communities are better prepared to handle potential risks to their water supply.
