Each year the Division shall, after consultation with interested persons and entities, including the DLG and Authority, review, update, and compile additions and modifications to the Project Eligibility List. This Project Eligibility List shall be included in the IUP as an Appendix and, after a public notice and comment period, shall be presented to the Commission for final agency action at a public hearing.
(2) Eligible Project Criteria The Project Eligibility List shall be comprised of four project types, which were developed to emphasize public health, drinking water quality, and compliance for Colorado PWSs. Projects on the Project Eligibility List will be classified by type A, B, C, or D below. No consideration will be given to governmental agencies or private nonprofit entities that have violations caused by poor operation and maintenance procedures or are under an administrative order for violating reporting requirements. All loan projects shall submit applications by deadlines established in the annual IUP.
(a) Type A includes the correction of a documented public health hazard as defined in the DWRF Rules.(b) Type B includes those projects where the system is beyond the useful/design life and is in need of equipment replacement, rehabilitation or repair, in order to maintain compliance or further the public health protection goals of the SDWA.(c) Type C includes those projects that will prevent or correct inadequate supply, storage and distribution issues. This also includes systems whose existing demand has exceeded current treatment plant design capacity.(d) Type D includes those projects that implement source water protection activities or water conservation and efficiency infrastructure applications. Note: The Project Types are determined based on the annual eligibility survey process to identify and quantify drinking water infrastructure needs across the state. This information is in no way related to project prioritization.
