Description
The Commonwealth of Massachusetts, through the Executive Office of Energy and Environmental Affairs, is offering a reimbursement‑based grant to support drought resiliency and water‑efficiency projects. Eligible entities such as municipalities, public water utilities, non‑profits, schools, and regional planning agencies can request up to $50,000 for initiatives that reduce water use, improve loss control, or enhance drought planning. Projects must be completed and expenses reimbursed by June 30 2027. Applications are submitted via the state’s Grant Management System, and selections are made early 2027.
• Eligible activities include water‑loss control programs, water‑efficiency improvements, outdoor water‑use reduction, and drought‑management planning.
• Funding is a single‑award reimbursement; no matching funds required.
• Proposals are evaluated on alignment with program goals, projected water‑savings impact, cost feasibility, and overall project quality.
