The Engineering Services Program may not be appropriate to address emergency situations or compliance related problems under an expedited time schedule. Public water systems serving 3,300 or fewer people are eligible for the program. The engineering assistance provided through the Engineering Services Program will be used to address various engineering needs of small drinking water systems, as well as special situations occurring within their systems. Small community drinking water systems with water quantity problems, nitrate maximum contaminant level violations or a high or medium rating under the Capability Enhancement Priority Rating System will receive the highest priority for assistance. Participating small water systems will execute a commitment letter specifying the terms of the assistance and identifying the technical assistance and self-help programs in which they will participate in return for services provided.
