Project Grant 98T38101

This $170,568 project grant from the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) Region 9 supports the Navajo Nation Superfund Program's (NSP) coordination assistance for the cleanup of Tronox-related mines at Cove, Quivira, Section 32 and 33 under the Superfund State, Political Subdivision, and Indian Tribe Site-Specific Cooperative Agreements program (CFDA 66.802). Key activities to be performed through September 2028 include NSP input to review data and documents, attendance at meetings for Navajo Nation site coordination, and conducting site visits and inspections to provide consistency in the Superfund process. Anticipated outcomes are a better-informed public and inclusion of Navajo cultural considerations in EPA decision-making. No subawards are included in the assistance agreement to the Navajo Nation Tribal Government.
