    SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Public Law No. 103-327, the Departments of 
    Veterans Affairs and Housing and Urban Development, and Independent 
    Agencies Appropriations Act, 1995, provides $1,235,200,000 to 
    capitalize SRF programs authorized by Title VI of the CWA. Section 
    604(a) of the CWA requires that funds appropriated for Title VI for FYs 
    1987-1990 be allotted in accordance with the table in section 205(c)(3) 
    of the CWA. Congress has given the Agency no instruction regarding the 
    allotment of FY 1995 funds. In the absence of Congressional action, the 
    Agency will allot the FY 1995 funds in accordance with the table in 
    section 205(c)(3) except as described below.
    
    Indian Tribes Adjustment
    
        Public Law 102-389 authorized the Administrator to reserve up to 
    one half of one percentum of the funds appropriated for FY 1993 and 
    thereafter for the State Revolving Funds for making grants to Indian 
    Tribes and Alaska Native Villages for construction of wastewater 
    treatment facilities. The full amount is hereby reserved to be 
    administered under the Indian Set-Aside Program authorized by section 
    518(c) of the CWA.
    
    Trust Territory Adjustment
    
        In Public Law No. 99-658, Congress approved a Compact of Free 
    Association for the Trust Territories' members. Two entities, the 
    Federated States of Micronesia and the Republic of the Marshall Islands 
    have implemented Compacts and are no longer eligible for grants under 
    Title VI. At the beginning of the FY the Republic of Palau's Compact of 
    Free Association had not become effective, and, under Public Law No. 
    99-239, Section 105(h)(2), Palau remains eligible for Title VI grants. 
    Funds that otherwise would have been allotted to the Federated States 
    of Micronesia and the Republic of the Marshall Islands are 
    redistributed to the States and Territories by proportionally 
    increasing their respective shares of the appropriation as shown in the 
    column titled ``Allotment Formula After Trust Territory Adjustments''. 
    The actual allotments resulting from the adjusted allotment shares are 
    shown in the column titled ``Fiscal Year 1995 State Allotment''. The 
    table at the end of this notice lists the amount of funding made 
    available to each State. These funds are available for obligation until 
    September 30, 1996. Grants from the allotments may be awarded as of the 
    date that the funds were issued to the Regional Administrators by the 
    Comptroller of EPA.
    
        Dated: December 22, 1994.
    Carol M. Browner,
    Administrator.
