Water System Asset Security Grant Program This funding opportunity provides financial support to community and non-profit public water systems in Maine for implementing security measures to protect essential water infrastructure.
The Water System Asset Security Grant Program, administered by the Maine Department of Health and Human Services (DHHS), aims to bolster the security of public water systems through planning and implementation of protective measures. This initiative directly aligns with a foundational mission of safeguarding public health and essential infrastructure.
By providing financial assistance for security enhancements, the program contributes to the resilience of communities and the uninterrupted delivery of safe drinking water, reflecting a strategic priority to protect critical state assets and the well-being of its residents. The program targets all community and non-profit non-community public water systems across all counties in Maine.
This includes a broad spectrum of beneficiaries such as water utilities, mobile home parks, apartment buildings, nursing homes, and schools. The impact goal is to enhance the physical and cyber security of these systems, thereby preventing disruptions, contamination, or malicious attacks that could compromise water supply and public health.
This focus on preventative security measures is a key aspect of the program's theory of change, assuming that proactive investment in security will reduce future risks and associated costs. The program prioritizes a range of security measures. Eligible projects include the planning and implementation of physical security measures like fencing, signs, security cameras, and alarm systems.
Additionally, it supports cybersecurity projects, assessments, software installations, and upgrades, particularly for SCADA systems that have been compromised. A significant focus is also placed on Risk and Resilience Assessments for Public Water Systems (PWSs) serving under 3,300 people.
Systems out of compliance with Drinking Water Rules & Regulations can also receive funds if the projects will bring them back into compliance, indicating a comprehensive approach to water system integrity. Expected outcomes include a measurable improvement in the security posture of participating public water systems.
This will lead to a reduction in vulnerabilities to both physical and cyber threats, increased resilience against potential incidents, and ultimately, a more secure and reliable water supply for Maine's communities. The program anticipates that individual grants, typically $10,000 or less but up to $20,000 in demonstrated need, will collectively contribute to a stronger statewide water infrastructure.
The DWP has allocated $300,000 for the 2024 grant program, reflecting a commitment to these outcomes and supporting the state’s broader strategic priorities in public health and infrastructure protection. City or township governments All community and non-profit non-community public water systems are eligible for grant awards.
