The Texas Clean Rivers Program (CRP) is a surface water quality
monitoring, assessment, and public outreach program. The program
provides the opportunity to identify and evaluate water quality
issues within each Texas river basin at the local and regional
level. By coordinating efforts with a variety of stakeholders,
priorities are selected and solutions are outlined. The CRP is
authorized by the Texas Clean Rivers Act, 30 TAC Subchapter A. The
program is funded by fees assessed to water-use and wastewater
permit holders.
Who is eligible for this funding opportunity?
Fifteen regional water agencies (12 river authorities, one water
district, one federal agency, one council of government) contract
with the TCEQ for reimbursement of the actual costs of
administering and implementing the Clean Rivers Program in each
major river basin. The reimbursement is based on an equitable
apportionment of the fees among basins.
