2    Sec. 605-913. Clean Water Workforce Pipeline Program.
3    (a) The General Assembly finds the following:
4        (1) The fresh surface water and groundwater supply in
5    Illinois and Lake Michigan constitute vital natural
6    resources that require careful stewardship and protection
7    for future generations. Access to safe and clean drinking
8    water is the right of all Illinois residents.
9        (2) To adequately protect these resources and provide
10    safe and clean drinking water, substantial investment is
11    needed to replace lead components in drinking water
12    infrastructure, improve wastewater treatment, flood
13    control, and stormwater management, control aquatic
14    invasive species, implement green infrastructure
15    solutions, and implement other infrastructure solutions to
16    protect water quality.
17        (3) Implementing these clean water solutions will
18    require a skilled and trained workforce, and new
19    investments will demand additional workers with
20    specialized skills.
21        (4) Water infrastructure jobs have been shown to
22    provide living wages and contribute to Illinois' economy.
23        (5) Significant populations of Illinois residents,
24    including, but not limited to, residents of environmental
25    justice communities, economically and socially

2    criminal justice system, foster care alumni, and in
3    particular women and transgender persons, are in need of
4    access to skilled living wage jobs like those in the water
5    infrastructure sector.
6        (6) Many of these residents are more likely to live in
7    communities with aging and inadequate clean water
8    infrastructure and suffer from threats to surface and
9    drinking water quality.
10        (7) The State can provide significant economic
11    opportunities to these residents and achieve greater
12    environmental and public health by investing in clean
13    water infrastructure.
14        (8) New training, recruitment, support, and placement
15    efforts are needed to connect these residents with career
16    opportunities in water infrastructure.
17        (9) The State must invest in both clean water
18    infrastructure and workforce development efforts in order
19    to achieve these goals.
20    (b) Subject to appropriation, From appropriations made
21from the Build Illinois Bond Fund, Capital Development Fund,
22or General Revenue Fund or other funds as identified by the
