The Bureau of Reclamation is investing $6.3 million in 10 tribal water projects, including several projects to ensure clean, reliable drinking water. … The funding comes through Reclamation’s Native American Affairs Technical Assistance Program, which is aimed at increasing opportunities for federal recognized tribes to manage, develop and protect their water and related resources. Since 2016, Reclamation has invited tribes in the 17 western states to submit project proposals as part of Reclamation’s Indian Trust responsibilities. Projects funded range from drinking water system installation and rehabilitation, well installation, wastewater and lagoon construction to water quality testing and workforce development.
