Synopsis

The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency's (EPA) Chesapeake Bay Program Office (CBPO) is announcing a Request for Applications (RFA) for applicants to provide the Chesapeake Bay Program (CBP) partners with applications for providing technical, financial, and programmatic assistance to reduce the necessary pollutant loads due to Conowingo Dam infill. This technical support includes the (1) development and implementation of Conowingo Watershed Implementation Plan (WIP) and two-year milestones, including an approach to identify the most cost-effective, efficient, and targeted nutrient and sediment reduction actions to address increased pollutant loadings due to the Conowingo Dam infill; (2) development of a multijurisdictional approach to financing by delivering a framework for a new financing system and associated implementation plan; and (3) development of a system for tracking, verifying, and reporting the implementation of practices identified in the Conowingo WIP and two-year milestones providing nutrient and sediment pollutant load reductions. CBP partners include federal agencies, seven watershed jurisdictions, and many non-federal organizations; however, work funded under this RFA will support the seven watershed jurisdictions and other non-federal partners. The seven watershed jurisdictions are Delaware, the District of Columbia, Maryland, New York, Pennsylvania, Virginia, and West Virginia.
