Presents the results of the EPA¿s survey of water quality programs and projects eligible for funding under the Clean Water State Revolving Fund. EPA prepared this report to meet the requirements in section 516 of the Clean Water Act. Because of water quality problems associated with non-point source (NPS) pollution, EPA has elected to include NPS pollution control projects as well. The Clean Watersheds Needs Survey (CWNS) 2000 is a collaborative effort between 48 States and the District of Columbia, and EPA. States entered data into the CWNS database over a 21-month period to be evaluated and analyzed by EPA. The results of the data entry are presented in this report. Extensive charts, tables, graphs and maps.
