Regulatory Landscape

California Water Infrastructure Regulatory Context

California is the largest state water infrastructure market in the nation, with nearly 3,000 community water systems and over 1,100 active SRF-funded projects. The State Water Resources Control Board (SWRCB) administers both the Drinking Water and Clean Water SRFs, along with additional state-funded programs targeting disadvantaged communities. California has its own PFAS notification and response levels and has been aggressive on emerging contaminants. The state also faces unique challenges around drought resilience, water recycling/reuse mandates, and the Human Right to Water Act (AB 685), which creates regulatory pressure to consolidate or upgrade failing small systems.

Key Funding Programs

  • SWRCB Drinking Water SRF
  • SWRCB Clean Water SRF
  • Bipartisan Infrastructure Law (BIL) supplemental allocations
  • Proposition 1 Water Bond
  • Small Community Drinking Water Funding
  • SAFER (Safe and Affordable Funding for Equity and Resilience)

Opportunity Detail

A Central Valley community water system serving a disadvantaged community was identified by United Current through cross-referencing SWRCB’s Needs Assessment data with active SRF project listings. The system had received $14.5M in principal-forgiveness funding for arsenic treatment and distribution system upgrades. United Current flagged the project 90 days before the engineering RFP was posted, including decision-maker contact information for the system’s board.
