Federal-State Partnership for Clean Water Act of 2025

This bill aims to strengthen federal-state collaboration in clean water initiatives by reauthorizing and significantly increasing funding for key programs under the Federal Water Pollution Control Act for fiscal years 2026 through 2030. It specifically boosts appropriations for Wetlands Program Development and Implementation Grants from $75 million to $300 million annually , with at least $100 million each fiscal year earmarked for states, interstate agencies, or municipalities, including Indian tribes, to develop and implement programs for protecting, managing, or restoring wetlands. Additionally, the bill reauthorizes and substantially increases funding for State Management Assistance , authorizing $500 million annually for the same fiscal period. These enhanced authorizations provide consistent and increased financial support, enabling states to more effectively manage and implement their clean water programs. Ultimately, the legislation seeks to bolster wetland protection efforts and overall clean water management across the nation.
