Abstract
The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) announces revised guidelines for eligible recipients (states, territories, and the District of Columbia) awarded Federal grants under section 319 of the Clean Water Act (CWA) for the implementation of nonpoint source management programs ("2024 Guidelines"). The 2024 guidelines describe the requirements that apply to recipients of grants made with funds appropriated by Congress under the Clean Water Act. These new guidelines will replace the Nonpoint Source Program and Grants Guidelines for States and Territories that have been in effect since the fiscal year 2014 grant cycle. The revisions are intended to advance new science and information, engage communities, and guide the national Nonpoint Source Program.
