正文(英文) | Contact Information: SPRINGFIELD (July 25, 2019) − U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has awarded a Clean Water Act Section 319 grant totaling $6,474,000 to the Illinois EPA to manage nonpoint source pollution in impaired watersheds throughout the state. “EPA continues to place a high priority on protecting lakes and streams from nonpoint source pollution, such as nutrient runoff,” Regional Administrator Cathy Stepp. “By working together with our state partners we are able to make an even greater impact in restoring water quality.” “The Section 319 program is a mainstay in Illinois to help local partners to develop and implement nonpoint source pollution control projects and programs to protect surface and groundwater resources,” said Illinois EPA Director John J. Kim. “Since 2006, rural and urban Section 319 projects planned and installed best management practices to keep 465,548 pounds of total nitrogen and 190,437 pounds of total phosphorus from reaching Illinois’ water resources.” Section 319 grants are given to states to implement environmental programs that address various sources of pollution in surface and groundwater in order to meet and maintain water quality standards. This EPA funding will support nonpoint source implementation projects including a variety of structural and non-structural best management practices, watershed planning, monitoring, technology demonstrations and a variety of education and outreach programs. Recently completed Section 319 projects in Illinois include:
