SB 1346 Oklahoma Senate · 2026 Regular Session

Water and water rights; creating the Water and Wastewater Infrastructure Investment Program; creating the Water and Wastewater Infrastructure Investment Revolving Fund. Effective date. Emergency.

SB 1346 creates a state program to provide competitive loans for water and wastewater infrastructure projects in Oklahoma. It establishes a $250 million revolving fund administered by the Oklahoma Water Resources Board, which will allocate funds based on community size: 50% to projects in areas with under 30,000 residents, 25% to medium-sized communities (30,000-400,000), and 25% to large cities (over 400,000). The program requires loan applicants to meet criteria like project urgency, conservation efforts, and matching funds, with a reimbursement requirement if projects fail to meet terms. The Board must publish an interactive map showing project status, locations, and timelines on its website.
