Among the major proposed changes for the 2013 program year, which ends June 30, are the removal of the minimum interest rate for systems meeting economic affordability or specific disadvantaged community program criteria and ability to apply for funds currently available under the federal fiscal year's continuing resolution, among others, OEPA reported.  Agency officials will host discussions on the proposed plan during two separate meetings scheduled for Tuesday afternoon at the agency's central office location in Columbus.
