State Assistance for Water Quality Improvement Projects

Water Quality Improvement Projects Program

There are no applications for Water Quality Improvement Projects being accepted at this time. New information will be posted on this web page as it becomes available.

Under the Environmental Protection Fund, New Yorkers have worked together to restore, preserve and protect our state's valuable environmental resources by funding Water Quality Improvement Projects (WQIP). The Department periodically issues a call for projects, evaluates applications, and ranks projects for funding under the WQIP process. Funds are used for projects that demonstrate direct environmental benefits that will help reduce polluted runoff, improve water quality, and restore habitat in New York State waters.

Information on previous rounds of funding for the Water Quality Improvement Project program can be found on the WQIP Document Archive. If you have questions regarding Water Quality Improvement Projects, send an e-mail to: WQIP Info
