About this file
This is a project narrative template for the Technical Assistance Grant (TAG) program administered by the Department of Transportation Pipeline and Hazardous Materials Safety Administration (PHMSA). The template provides instructions and seven question prompts that applicants must address to complete their grant applications in accordance with the Notice of Funding Opportunity Sections D and E. Applicants must describe their project's abstract, confirm their organizational status, and attest that proposed activities do not constitute regulatory compliance or routine pipeline operations and maintenance.
The seven evaluation criteria align with PHMSA's stated merit review process and require applicants to address: project scope and objectives focusing on areas of significant pipeline failure risk; specific pipeline safety concerns and affected geographic areas; strategies for stakeholder communication and partnership development; alignment with PHMSA's strategic plan and safety improvement areas including engineering, damage prevention, land use planning, education, emergency response, and community awareness; detailed project plans with resources, milestones, and estimated costs; measurable results and deliverables with evaluation and dissemination approaches; and potential for learning and technology transfer to other communities. For nonprofits serving as municipal pipeline operators, applications must explicitly confirm compliance with funding restrictions outlined in Section D.6 of the Notice of Funding Opportunity. The template accommodates direct text entry or copy-paste responses for each required element.
