This bill proposes an amendment to the Save Our Seas 2.0 Act, specifically targeting the **Wastewater Infrastructure and Trash-Free Waters Grants** program. The primary objective is to broaden the scope of entities eligible to receive these crucial grants. Currently, certain sections of the Act limit eligibility to municipalities, units of local government, and Indian Tribes. The proposed changes would explicitly include **States** as eligible recipients for these grants. This expansion aims to enhance efforts in improving wastewater infrastructure and promoting trash-free waters by allowing state-level entities to access funding.
