Summary

Clean Water for the Americas Partnership Act of 2001 - Amends the Foreign Assistance Act of 1961 to authorize the President to establish the Clean Water for the Americas Partnership program. Authorizes the President to conduct a comprehensive assessment of the environmental problems in the region (member countries of the Organization of American States, other than the United States and Canada) to determine: (1) which environmental problems threaten human health the most, which are most threatening to the region's natural resources, and which countries have the most pressing environmental problems; and (2) to what extent there is a market for U.S. environmental technology, practices, knowledge, and innovations in the region. Authorizes the President to establish in the region Technology America Centers (TEAMs), which shall support U.S. private sector environmental technology firms seeking local partners (particularly small businesses) and opportunities for environmental projects. Authorizes the President to: (1) provide matching grants to U.S. associations and nonprofit entities to promote joint water quality, water treatment systems, and energy efficiency projects with Latin American and Caribbean associations and entities in the region; and (2) make grants for prefeasibility studies for water projects in any country within a single subregion or in a designated single country. Establishes a Clean Water Technical Assistance Committee to provide technical support and training services for individual water projects.
