USEPA Success Stories

States are required to submit candidate “Success Stories” for USEPA approval as part of the Clean Water Act Section 319(h) Nonpoint Source (NPS) Pollution Control Grant Program. Success stories are defined by USEPA as waterbodies that were impaired primarily by nonpoint sources of pollution, received 319(h) grants or other funding sources dedicated to solving NPS impairments, and achieved documented water quality improvements.
