Cost-Share MapService
North Dakota funds most water projects through the Department of Water Resources Cost-Share Program. This program provides financial assistance to local sponsors for projects such as municipal and rural water supply, flood protection, irrigation, dam safety, water conveyance, and state-owned improvements.
State funding is appropriated by the North Dakota Legislature and comes from the Resources Trust Fund, which is supported by 20.5 percent of the state’s oil extraction tax revenue. Cost-share funding requests are reviewed by the State Water Commission.
