non-federal match requirements of the Drinking Water State Revolving Fund and Clean Water State Revolving Fund programs administered by the EPA, for example. Pursuant to 2 CFR 200.306(b) of the Uniform Guidance, if funds are legally available to meet the match or cost -share requirements of an agency's federal program, such awarding agency is required to accept such funds for the purpose of that program's match or cost -share requirements except in the circumstances enumerated in that section.
