The sources reviewed for this record do not show that CRMWA has applied for or received State Water Implementation Fund for Texas (SWIFT) or other TWDB financing for CRMWA II. The MOU states that funding design early would increase CRMWA's ability to access state and federal funding with a shovel-ready project and that CRMWA will keep CRMWA II in the State Water Plan to maximize state funding options.[3][1]
