On June 15, 2020, from 9:00am to 10:00am (PT) the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is hosting a webinar: Sustainable Financial Management Planning for Water Utilities Webinar.

These water sector investments can be crucial to supporting local jobs and protecting public health in the community. Attend this one-hour webinar to learn about ways coordination between funding agencies is occurring in states across the country and discuss opportunities for state-level agencies to partner with foundations on water infrastructure investments.
