The Wyoming Department of Environmental Quality (DEQ), the Office of State Lands and
Investments (OSLI), and the Wyoming Water Development Office (WDO) will hold a public
meeting to discuss the draft fiscal year 2027 Intended Use Plans for the Drinking Water State
Revolving Fund (DWSRF) and the Clean Water State Revolving Fund (CWSRF). The
meeting is scheduled for Thursday, April 9, 2025, at 2:00 p.m. at the Wyoming Department
of Environmental Quality, 2nd Floor Conference Room 211, Cheyenne, Wyoming. The
Intended Use Plans identify the intended uses of the funds available through the CWSRF
and DWSRF programs during the upcoming fiscal year. The purpose of the public meeting
is to solicit public comments prior to the finalization of the Intended Use Plans.
The draft plans contain ranked lists of publicly owned drinking water, wastewater, and nonpoint source water pollution control projects. The CWSRF and DWSRF programs provide
low interest loans for the construction of these types of projects. The inclusion of projects in
the plans is important because it makes these projects eligible to apply for DWSRF or
CWSRF funding. Projects that do not appear on these plans are not eligible to apply for
loans from these programs. Public entities with projects that may qualify are encouraged to
notify DEQ or WDO. The draft plans rank potential projects based upon several factors.
These include addressing public health issues, resolving compliance issues, and correcting
system deficiencies.
Copies of the draft Intended Use Plans may be obtained from the contacts listed below. In
accordance with the Americans With Disabilities Act, special assistance or alternate formats
