Clean Water Act Financial Capability Assessment Guidance

The Financial Capability Assessment Guidance (FCA Guidance) is used by municipalities when devising plans to come into compliance with the CWA. During that process, municipalities and EPA negotiate schedules with specific timeframes for implementation. The FCA Guidance describes the financial information and formulas the agency uses to assess a community's financial resources to implement control measures and timeframes.
