EPA fija allotments FY2025 SRF: Puerto Rico $43.444M DW y $55.596M CW
El 3 de septiembre de 2025, esta mesa retargeta el hub HHS hacia el paquete EPA de Fiscal Year 2025 Allotments for the State Revolving Fund Provisions of the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act and Base Program Funding —memorandum firmado digitalmente por Peggy S. Browne, Acting Assistant Administrator, el 15 de mayo de 2025 (Date 2025.05.15), con tablas en el PDF fy2025-srf-allotment-tables. Primaria: la página EPA del FY 2025 Joint SRF Allotments Memorandum. Allotted ≠ obligated ≠ disbursed. Topic both.
Attachment A (FY25 Summary — Distribution of Drinking Water SRF Appropriation) asigna a Puerto Rico: DWSRF Base $10,906,000; IIJA DWSRF General Supplemental $24,898,000; IIJA DWSRF Emerging Contaminants $7,640,000; FY25 Total $43,444,000. Las tres columnas son drinking water. El piso estatutario del 1.00% aparece en varias jurisdicciones con la misma fila de Gen Supp y Emerging Contaminants, incluido Puerto Rico.
El memorandum provee final allotment tables para IIJA SRF General Supplemental y Emerging Contaminants capitalization grants, más Base program funds appropriated under the Full Year Continuing Appropriations and Extensions Act, 2025 (PL 119-4) para CWSRF y DWSRF. Explicitamente no incluye tablas FY2025 IIJA Lead Service Line Replacement; EPA anunciaría esos allotments when finalized in the coming weeks. State match para IIJA General Supplemental Capitalization Grants permanece at 20 percent per IIJA statute.
En la tabla Clean Water (CWSRF Base / General Supplemental / Emerging Contaminants), Puerto Rico figura con CWSRF Base $20,693,000; General Supplemental $32,130,000; Emerging Contaminants $2,773,000; FY25 Total $55,596,000. Sumar DW total $43,444,000 más CW total $55,596,000 sin etiquetar vehículos mezcla programas; son revolving funds distintos.
Totales nacionales del Attachment A DW: Total Funds Available to States $1,090,579,000 (base) + $2,489,769,000 (Gen Supp) + $764,000,000 (EC) = $4,344,348,000 a states; Total SRF Appropriation con AI/ANV, American Iron and Steel, OIG y EPA Admin alcanza $4,529,101,000 en esa hoja. English billion y million. Quien lea solo «$43.444 million a PR» sin las tres columnas pierde Base versus IIJA Gen Supp versus Emerging Contaminants.
Additional subsidy: no changes in authorities from FY2024 to FY2025. Para base funding hay two different additional subsidy authorities por cada SRF; IIJA Emerging Contaminant funding is 100 percent additional subsidy en el marco del memo. Eso no convierte automáticamente cada dólar allotted a Puerto Rico en grant a fondo perdido ya ejecutado; hay que leer assistance agreements posteriores.
Terms and conditions estarán disponibles a las regiones en EPA SRF SharePoint, según el memo. Regions should ensure state SRF managers know the 20 percent match rule for FY2025 IIJA General Supplemental. La fecha de nota del board es 2025-09-03; el memo y tablas llevan mayo 2025 —peg institucional durable del ciclo FY2025, no inventado el día.
Borinquen pedía retarget fuera de bare https://www.hhs.gov/; el Joint SRF memo EPA es el documento de allotment con filas PR verificables. Quien necesite LSLR FY2025 esperará el memo aparte; aquí no se inventa esa tabla. No EWG. No confundir con FY2026 LSLR memo ni con news releases de $63.3 million, more than $67 million o $62.283 million ya archivados —vehículos y años distintos dentro del mismo ecosistema SRF.
Although total base appropriations did not change between FY2024 and FY2025, base funding available to states increased because PL 119-4 did not include funding for the Community Grants program. That accounting note belongs in the money trail next to the Puerto Rico rows, not as a substitute for the allotment figures themselves.
En síntesis del 3 de septiembre de 2025: las tablas FY2025 fijan para Puerto Rico $43.444 million DWSRF (Base $10.906M + Gen Supp $24.898M + EC $7.640M) y $55.596 million CWSRF (Base $20.693M + Gen Supp $32.130M + EC $2.773M), con LSLR pendiente de memo aparte. Sin convertir allotment en desembolso, la nota deja el menú limpio para la pista MONEY y salud ambiental.
