Dossier Legislative introduced 16-jul-2026
Bill introduced in Congress — not yet passed by either chamber, and not law.

A bill to amend the Federal Water Pollution Control Act to modify allotments under that Act, and for other purposes.

Key claim: Senate bill S5016 would amend the Federal Water Pollution Control Act to modify allotments under that Act.

Abstract

(S5016 · 119th Congress) Latest action (2026-07-16): Read twice and referred to the Committee on Environment and Public Works.

Why this matters

Clean Water Act allotments determine how federal water pollution control funds are distributed among states, directly affecting state capacity for wastewater infrastructure, permitting, and enforcement. Even incremental formula changes can shift millions of dollars in construction grants or SRF capitalization across states, with downstream effects on compliance timelines and local water quality outcomes.
