正文(英文) | Contact Information: Providence — Funding from the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency being awarded to 13 organizations working in Massachusetts and Rhode Island will help promote cleaner water and healthier coastal ecosystems in southeastern New England. The awards, totaling $1.1 million for seven projects in Rhode Island, and $1.2 million for six projects in Massachusetts, are administered by Restore America's Estuaries (RAE), who partners with EPA to administer the program to advance the health of coastal ecosystems in southeastern New England. "The bays, estuaries, and landscapes of Southeast coastal New England are the heart of our communities. Funding these projects and working with our partners to develop opportunities for collaboration and smart innovation continues to be a priority for EPA," said EPA New England Regional Administrator Dennis Deziel. "This funding will help protect clean water and build healthy watersheds, and is vital to the ecological health and economic vitality of our coastal communities." The funding is provided under EPA New England's 2019 Southeast New England Program (SNEP) Watershed Grants. The grant program builds and supports partnerships that tackle the region's most pressing environmental issues, such as nutrient pollution and coastal habitat loss. For 2019, RAE selected grant recipients through a rigorous competitive process. The $2.3 million in federal funds for the region will be matched by an additional $800,000 in state and local dollars – providing, in total, more than $3.1 million to protect and restore Southeast New England's environment. The awardees include municipalities, non-profit organizations, and academic institutions. In Massachusetts, the 2019 SNEP Watershed Grants are providing $1.2 million to six local partnerships led by the following organizations:
