What is the purpose of the WPCLF Water Resource Restoration Sponsor Program (WRRSP)?
The intent of the WPCLF WRRSP is to address a broader category of water resource needs in Ohio through direct WPCLF loans. While significant progress has been made in reducing the impact of municipal wastewater effluent on water quality, the best available data indicates that impacts from nonpoint source runoff, habitat degradation, and watershed disturbances may be impeding over-all rates of water resource improvements and threatening much of the progress that has been made. The goal of the WRRSP is to counter the loss of ecological function and biological diversity that jeopardizes the health of Ohio’s water resources. The WRRSP will achieve this goal by providing funds, through WPCLF loans, to finance planning and implementation of projects that protect or restore water resources, ensuring either maintenance or attainment of designated aquatic life uses under Ohio Water Quality Standards. Restoration activities to be undertaken through the WRRSP may focus on biological habitat issue
