What it does
The Border Water Quality Restoration and Protection Act (HR.4357) aims to restore and protect water quality in the Tijuana and New Rivers by establishing federal programs for pollution control, infrastructure improvements, and interagency cooperation. It affects communities along the U.S.-Mexico border, particularly in southern California, by addressing sewage, stormwater, and pollution flows that threaten public health, ecosystems, and local economies. The bill authorizes grants, action plans, annual budgeting, and reporting through the EPA and the International Boundary and Water Commission to mitigate transboundary pollution and support water reuse and green infrastructure.
