Report Description

Summary of FindingsAs we evaluated the execution of the EPA’s 7th Drinking Water Infrastructure Needs Survey and Assessment, or DWINSA, we saw indications that a lack of internal controls may have caused the EPA to base its fiscal year 2023 allotment of $3 billion in IIJA funds for lead service line replacements on inaccurate data. As such, there is a risk that the EPA did not allot the fiscal year 2023 IIJA funds, and will not allot future IIJA funds, according to states’ lead-service-line-replacement needs.
