Description The Department of Ecology (Ecology) faces a deficit in the 2013-15 biennium in the administrative fund it uses to manage the Water Pollution Control Revolving Fund (Revolving Fund) loan program. This poses a risk to Ecology’s ability to effectively manage the Revolving Fund loan program, which passes along essential financing to local governments for infrastructure projects that protect clean water in the state. Ecology seeks to adopt legislation that gives it statutory authority to assess a loan administration charge to pay for its costs to administer the Revolving Fund loan program. The approach protects Washington against the anticipated deficit in federal funds, establishes the Revolving Fund as self sustaining in perpetuity, and maintains a critical loan program that protects clean water in Washington.
