# New York Offers $45M Resilience Grants

New York completed the Village of Webster’s $16 million wastewater treatment plant upgrade, financed with $14.5 million in interest-free Clean Water State Revolving Fund financing and a $1.4 million grant. The funding package is projected to save the Village more than $16 million in debt-service costs. The construction opportunity is complete; the current opportunity for municipalities and their project teams is New York Environmental Facilities Corporation’s $45 million Green Resiliency Grants program, for which applications are being accepted, with Community Assistance Team consultations available to help municipalities prepare applications.

- Municipalities can evaluate eligible projects for the Green Resiliency Grants and request EFC Community Assistance Team consultations to support application preparation; no application deadline is stated in the signal.
- Contractors and engineering firms can use the completed Webster upgrade as an example of a wastewater project supported by a combination of state revolving-fund financing and grant funding, while engaging municipalities preparing grant applications.
- The Webster project’s financing illustrates how interest-free loans and grants can reduce municipal debt-service costs; the completed upgrade itself is not an open procurement opportunity.
