Water System Threat Preparedness and Resilience Act of 2023

HR 1367 establishes an EPA program to improve water system security and resilience against threats. It requires the EPA to encourage community water systems and treatment facilities to join the Water Information Sharing and Analysis Center, offset their membership costs, and enhance coordination for threat data. The bill authorizes $10 million annually (2024-2025) to fund tools for monitoring water sector threats, including natural disasters and intentional attacks, and to help systems prepare for, detect, and recover from incidents. This directly affects public water providers by reducing financial barriers to participating in threat-sharing networks and improving their emergency response capabilities.
