Drinking Water Loans

The Public Water Supply Loan Program (PWSLP) provides low interest rate loans and other forms of assistance for drinking water projects.  Eligible projects include, but are not limited to drinking water infrastructure construction, upgrading or rehabilitating existing infrastructure, and a variety of other projects that protect or improve the quality of Illinois' rivers, streams and lakes.  

Applicants must have planning approval by to March 31st of each year in order to be scored for funding on the upcoming Intended Funding List (IFL) which is released on July 1st.  Once the applicant has funds reserved for the project, they have the entire fiscal year (July 1st through June 30th, but funding only reserved through December 31st) to get their loan written.  For further information and explanation on the funding cycle of the IEPA loan programs please see the Funding Cycle Explanation Document.
