FYI. Sharing in case this is helpful for groups tracking IIJA implementation.

Subject: The Bipartisan Infrastructure Law Guidebook

Partners,

With the signing of the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law in mid-November, President Biden marked a new era of building a better America together. The Bipartisan Infrastructure Law is historic in its size – the largest ever investments in broadband, rail and transit, clean energy, and water, just to name a few. Implementing the largest investment in our nation’s infrastructure in generations – and making sure we’re changing people’s lives for the better – will require deep partnership alongside Members of Congress, Governors, Mayors, Tribal leaders, local officials, and community members.

Today, the White House is releasing a Bipartisan Infrastructure Law guidebook on Build.gov to provide information so communities know what to apply for, who to contact, and how to get ready to rebuild. This guidebook is a roadmap to the funding available under the law, as well as an explanatory document that shows direct federal spending at the program level. Our goal is for communities all across America to take full advantage of the opportunity this new funding presents. This resource is another step forward in our work together to build a better America.

To help stakeholders better understand how to use this document and hear the latest updates on the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law implementation, we’re are hosting two webinars over the next week:
Thank you for your support in uplifting this guidebook and the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law!

Guidebook Overview
View the guidebook on Build.gov!
  • The guidebook is a roadmap to the current funding available under the law. It includes as much detail as currently available, key dates, funding opportunities and direct federal spending across the government at the programmatic level.
  • The guidebook lists current “appropriated” funding levels – i.e. real dollars.
  • The guidebook is divided into 12 chapters, one for each broad programmatic level (i.e.- Roads & Bridges, Broadband, Water).
  • Each chapter includes an executive summary with total funding amount, listing of funded programs, existing technical assistance resources and what states can be doing to prepare.
  • Following the summary, there is one page on each of the more than 375 programs in the bill including program name, agency, program description, funding amount, period of availability, who can apply, eligible uses, and key dates/upcoming milestones.
  • There is a sortable, searchable file at Build.gov.
  • Both the online PDF and searchable spreadsheet will be updated regularly.
