Grant Overview

Delaware's water quality is a pressing concern, with high levels of pollutants and contaminants affecting the state's rivers and streams. According to the Delaware Department of Natural Resources and Environmental Control, 70% of the state's waterways are impaired, posing a risk to public health and local ecosystems. This issue affects communities across the state, particularly in areas like the Delaware Bayshore, where water quality is critical to the local fishing industry. The water quality improvement funding addresses this environmental challenge by supporting programs aimed at reducing pollution and enhancing public health outcomes. By implementing best practices in pollution management and engaging local communities in monitoring efforts, the initiative seeks to improve water quality and protect local ecosystems. Delaware's unique geography, with its coastal wetlands and bayshore regions, requires a nuanced approach to water quality management. Unlike neighboring Pennsylvania, Delaware's small size and relatively simple hydrology create opportunities for targeted water quality interventions. What are Delaware's Water Quality Targets? The initiative focuses on reducing contaminants and improving public health outcomes. Measurable outcomes will include decreased levels of pollutants and increased community stewardship. Delaware's Water Quality Monitoring Infrastructure is characterized by a network of monitoring stations and community-based monitoring programs. Funding will prioritize programs that enhance this infrastructure and support community engagement. By doing so, the initiative aims to create a more sustainable water quality management system in Delaware.
