Summary
This bill amends the Consolidated Farm and Rural Development Act to expand federal assistance for rural water, wastewater, and waste disposal systems. It authorizes the Secretary of Agriculture to provide grants, zero-percent and one-percent interest loans, loan forgiveness, loan modifications, and loan refinancing to eligible rural water facilities. Assistance may be provided to ensure public health and safety or to address financial hardships in disadvantaged or economically distressed areas, with the Secretary establishing affordability indicators based on household water costs as a percentage of median income.
