 UIC
Tribal Grant Program
Grants are provided annually to support Tribal Underground Injection
Control (UIC) programs to protect drinking water sources. Theses funds
should be used for Class
V implementation, including Class V inventories, or UIC Primacy grants
when necessary, unless a clear rationale exists to apply it to other classes.
Funds are allocated to EPA Regions using an allocation formula that is
based on Tribal population numbers by Region with a 1% minimum. The total
amount available to Tribes for FY2004 is $473,300.For an overview of the
Tribal Source Water Program, check out the page, Drinking
Water Quality in Indian Country: Protecting the Sources.
