Each LOI will be evaluated for the extent to which the project satisfies the criteria listed below for each category. To satisfy the overall category review, it is not necessary to satisfy all criteria for each category. For the Project Impact category, WIFIA staff will score LOIs based on the points indicated below. All projects that satisfy category-level review for all three categories will be selected for funding, assuming sufficient funds are still available. The criteria are as follows: Project Readiness: (i) The readiness of the project to proceed toward development, including a demonstration by the obligor that there is a reasonable expectation that the contracting process for construction of the project can commence by not later than 90 days after the date on which a Federal credit instrument is obligated for the project under WIFIA. (ii) Preliminary engineering feasibility analysis. Borrower Creditworthiness: (i) The likelihood that assistance under WIFIA would enable the project to proceed at an earlier date than the project would otherwise be able to proceed. (ii) The extent to which the project financing plan includes public or private financing in addition to assistance under WIFIA. (iii) The extent to which assistance under WIFIA reduces the contribution of Federal assistance to the project. (iv) The amount of budget authority required to fund the Federal credit instrument made available under WIFIA. (v) Preliminary determination of prospective borrower and project creditworthiness. Project Impact: (i) 10 points: The extent to which the project is nationally or regionally significant, with respect to the generation of economic and public benefits, such as (1) the reduction of flood risk; (2) the improvement of water quality and quantity, including aquifer recharge; (3) the protection of drinking water, including source water protection; and (4) the support of international commerce. (ii) 15 points: The extent to which the project (1) protects against extreme weather events, such as floods, hurricanes or drought; or (2) helps maintain or protect the environment, including Priority D. (iii) 5 points: The extent to which the project serves regions with significant VerDate Sep<11>2014 17:19 Sep 06, 2024 Jkt 262001 energy exploration, development, or production areas. (iv) 10 points: The extent to which a project serves regions with significant water resource challenges, including the need to address: (1) water quality concerns in areas of regional, national, or international significance; (2) water quantity concerns related to groundwater, surface water, or other water sources; (3) significant flood risk; (4) water resource challenges identified in existing regional, state, or multistate agreements; or (5) water resources with exceptional recreational value or ecological importance. (v) 5 points: The extent to which the project addresses identified municipal, state, or regional priorities. (vi) 10 points: The extent to which the project addresses needs for repair, rehabilitation or replacement of a treatment works, community water system, or aging water distribution or wastewater collection system. (vii) 15 points: The extent to which the project serves economically stressed communities, or pockets of economically stressed rate payers within otherwise non-economically stressed communities, including Priority A. (viii) 15 points: The extent to which the project reduces exposure to lead in the nation’s drinking water systems or addresses emergent contaminants, including Priorities B and C. (ix) 15 points: The extent to which the project uses new or innovative approaches, including Priority E. The scoring scales and guidance used to evaluate each project against the selection criteria are available in the WIFIA program handbook. Prospective borrowers considering WIFIA should review the WIFIA program handbook and discuss how the project addresses each of the selection criteria in the LOI submission. X.
