Supporting Your Community’s Recovery and Infrastructure through Securing, Managing, and Implementing Federal Funds

The Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act (IIJA) – also known as the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law – authorizes $1.2 trillion in infrastructure spending across more than 380 federal programs. Of that, approximately $650 billion reauthorizes existing funding, and another $550 billion adds new funding to support the nation’s growing infrastructure needs. Additionally, the Inflation Reduction Act (IRA) authorizes $370 billion to support grants, loans, rebates, and incentives for clean energy and climate actions. Combined with $350 billion of Coronavirus State and Local Fiscal Recovery Funds (CSLFRF) under the American Rescue Plan Act (ARPA), local governments have an unprecedented opportunity to secure, manage, and implement federal funds to support their community’s recovery and infrastructure priorities.

Understanding where to begin and practical steps for moving forward can be challenging. This webinar will help locals better understand the variety of recovery, infrastructure, water, resilience, and other programs available under IIJA as well as the Inflation Reduction Act (IRA). Emphasis will be on practical and tangible actions local leaders and staff can take to identify, secure, implement federal funds and federally funded programs.

Presenters:

• John Hageman, Deputy Director, Recovery
• Tom Leatherbee, Manager, Recovery
