Overview

Grant Description
Description:
These funds for the North American Development Bank (NADB) will provide assistance to implement the recipient's Border Environment Infrastructure Fund (BEIF) program. The activities are to provide grant financial assistance to numerous subrecipients for costs associated with the construction and transition assistance of their eligible safe drinking water and water quality improvement and protection projects.

The expected outcomes are to manage an effective comprehensive Border Environment Infrastructure Fund program and to implement projects that address safe drinking water and wastewater infrastructure projects that improve and protect water quality and public health for citizens throughout the Region 6 United States/Mexico border area up to (62 miles on each side of the border).

The North American Development Bank (NADB) will use the funds to implement the Border Environment Infrastructure Fund (BEIF) program in accordance with the objectives, responsibilities, and procedures described in the Standard Operating Procedures dated May 2011 or its latest revision. The projects identified in the work plan meet the Category 1 priority and will be developed by North American Development Bank using Project Development Assistance Program (PDAP) funding for certification.

The North American Development Bank will provide assistance in the form of subawards to four communities in the United States/Mexico border area for the award of construction contracts and implement the construction of drinking water and/or wastewater infrastructure for its service areas. Anthony, New Mexico will implement a wastewater expansion project; El Paso County will implement a comprehensive wastewater collection and treatment rehabilitation; North Alamo, Texas will implement a comprehensive wastewater collection and treatment rehabilitation project; and Del Rio, Texas will implement a water rehabilitation and improvement project.

Over 12,450 households in the four border communities (Anthony, New Mexico; El Paso County, Texas; North Alamo, Texas; and Del Rio, Texas) will benefit from improved drinking water and wastewater services. In addition, many of the residents in these communities will benefit from first-time water or wastewater service, which will prevent waterborne diseases and contamination of surface and groundwater sources.

Activities:
The North American Development Bank will oversee and administer the implementation of construction and/or transition assistance to three communities in Anthony, New Mexico; Del Rio, Texas; North Alamo, Texas; and El Paso County, Texas. The communities, through subawards, will procure and issue construction oversight and construction contracts to implement high-priority drinking water and wastewater projects to benefit the residents in each community.

Subrecipient:
The communities will procure and award construction oversight and construction contracts to implement the construction of high-priority drinking water and wastewater projects to benefit the community residents.

Outcomes:
The NADB will provide progress construction schedules on a monthly basis and ongoing and projected project disbursements on a quarterly basis as part of their oversight and project administration. As part of the NADB's oversight activities, monthly and quarterly schedules and reports will be provided to the EPA Region 6 to demonstrate project progress.

Over 12,450 households in the four border communities (Anthony, New Mexico; Del Rio, Texas; North Alamo, Texas; and El Paso County, Texas) will benefit from improved drinking water and wastewater services. In addition, many of the residents in these communities will benefit from first-time water or wastewater service, which will prevent waterborne diseases and contamination of surface and groundwater sources.
