Description: The objective of this FOA is to invite states, Indian tribes, irrigation districts, water districts, and other organizations with water or power delivery authority to leverage their money and resources by cost sharing with Reclamation on pilot and demonstration projects to accelerate the adoption and use of AWT technologies in order to increase water supply and provide for long term water sustainability. Projects funded under this FOA will include pilot and demonstration projects that will address the technical, economic, and environmental viability of treating and using brackish groundwater, seawater, impaired waters, or otherwise creating new water supplies within a specific locale. The adoption and use of AWT is a crucial element of any plan to address western water issues. Leveraging Federal funding through grants is an important step toward sustainable water supplies in the west.
