The State Revolving Fund program represents a major shift in the ways governments address water quality needs. Using John Kingdon’s concept of policy streams, this study examines the formal targeting mechanisms employed by states to meet these goals and whether use of these mechanisms actually results in a greater percentage of program resources allocated to the targeted communities. The findings include the following: (a) targeting mechanisms are not widely used in states, (b) targeting makes little difference in the patterns of resource distribution to potential classes of communities, and (c) Kingdon’s notion of policy streams provides a useful heuristic to understand changes in implementation over time.
