Sets forth criteria for the allocation and use of funds for state and Indian tribe small public water systems.

Requires the Administrator to report annually between 2009 and 2014 to the House Committee on Energy and Commerce and the Senate Committee on Environment and Public Works on Program activities and make such reports public.
