The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency awarded a $641,764 Project Grant to the Fallon Paiute Shoshone Tribe under the Diesel Emissions Reduction Act (DERA) National Grants program (CFDA 66.039). The funding will be used to replace an existing truck on the Fallon Paiute-Shoshone Reservation in Churchill County, Nevada with a new, cleaner diesel truck. This activity supports the EPA's strategic goal of reducing emissions that cause climate change by lowering the lifetime emissions from the tribe's vehicle fleet. The anticipated deliverables include the new truck, community outreach, baseline emissions data, and progress/financial reports. The expected outcomes are a reduction in harmful emissions, improved air quality, and increased community awareness of environmental issues. There are no subawards included under this grant.
