Service Description: Disadvantaged communities within Most Effective Basins based on the 2022 Most Effective Basins mapping project.
In FY 2021, an additional $1.25 million was appropriated for “state-based implementation in the most effective basins.” EPA and the Chesapeake Bay Partnership have renewed their commitment and focus on inclusion and equity and are focused on supporting disadvantaged communities. EPA is focusing this additional funding allocation on those areas that have been identified as being most effective for improving water quality while targeting disadvantaged communities. The allocation for this funding will follow the same funding allocation used for the Chesapeake Bay Implementation Grants (CBIG). The CBIG allocation formula awards funds to the seven jurisdictional partners in the following manner: a 20% share goes to MD, PA, and VA and a 10% share goes to DC, DE, NY, and WV.
Disadvantaged communities will be identified based on demographic metrics from the American Community Survey. Disadvantaged communities are being identified by the following variables. All variables except percent low income utilize the 80th percentile as the threshold to be included in that group:
- Percent low-income: Defined as ratio of income to cost of living that is less than two. Data is presented as a census block group with a percentage of population that is low income >=50%. This definition comes from work completed by the CBP Diversity Workgroup where they provided “best professional judgment” in terms of interpreting this metric.
- Percent in linguistic isolation: Percent of households in which no one age 14 and over speaks English "very well" or speaks English only (as a fraction of households).
- Percent unemployment: All those who did not have a job at all during the reporting period, made at least one specific active effort to find a job during the prior 4 weeks, and were available for work (unless temporarily ill).
- Percent less than high school education: Percent of individuals age 25 and over with less than high school degree.
- Percent under age 5: Percent of individuals under age 5 as a fraction of the population.
- Percent over age 64: Percent of individuals over age 64 as a fraction of the population.
