SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Public Law No. 103-124, the Departments of
Veterans Affairs and Housing and Urban Development, and Independent
Agencies Appropriations Act, 1994, provides $1,218,000,000 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
fiscal years 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 fiscal year 1994 funds. In the
absence of Congressional action, the Agency will allot the fiscal year
1994 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 in fiscal year 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. These funds will be allotted to the Indian Tribes
and Alaska Native Villages based on the 1990 Indian Set-Aside Project
Priority List published in the Federal Register December 21, 1990.
Projects were ranked on this Priority List based on water quality and
public health criteria.
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 effective date of this allotment the Republic of Palau
has yet to implement a Compact of Free Association, and, under Public
Law No. 99-239, section 105(h)(2), 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 1994 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, 1995. 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: February 18, 1994.
Carol M. Browner,
Administrator.
