Program Summary

Annual federal pass-through funding for nonpoint source water quality projects drawn from approved Ohio watershed plans.

Full Description

Roughly $2.7 million was available in the 2026 round for implementation of projects identified in approved NPS-IS watershed plans. Eligible work includes stream restoration, wetland development, stormwater management, and invasive species removal. The FY2026 round closed in March 2026 with awards in summer, and the cycle repeats annually, so the FY2027 request for proposals should post between January and March 2027.
