About this opportunity
The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, Region 10 (EPA) is issuing a Request for Applications (RFA) for the Columbia River Basin Restoration Funding Assistance Program: Science and Monitoring Competition. The EPA is seeking applications from eligible entities, including state and local governments, Tribal governments, regional water pollution control agencies, and nongovernmental organizations, to improve the understanding of toxics and their effects on water quality in the Columbia River Basin. The program prioritizes three areas: 1) characterization and spatiotemporal trend analysis, 2) pathway identification, and 3) novel methods and approaches. Applications will be evaluated based on criteria such as program approach, environmental justice, longevity, environmental results, programmatic capability, and budget. The deadline for applications is May 17, 2024.
The EPA anticipates awarding up to $15 million for approximately 7 cooperative agreements ranging from $300,000 to $3 million. The funding is provided through the Columbia River Basin Restoration Program (CRBRP), authorized under the Clean Water Act, to support ecosystem protection and restoration activities in the Columbia River Basin.
Synopsis
The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, Region 10 (EPA), is issuing a Request for Applications (RFA) from eligible entities to improve the understanding of toxics and their effects on water quality in the Columbia River Basin by increasing the number, type, and scientific rigor of toxics monitoring projects in the Columbia River Basin through specific actions in three program priority areas: 1) characterization and spatiotemporal trend analysis; 2) pathway identification; and/or 3) novel methods and approaches. The Columbia River Basin Restoration Program (CRBRP) will assist Tribal, state, and local governments; nongovernmental entities, and others as they implement the 2010 Columbia River Basin Toxics Reduction Action Plan and the Lower Columbia River Estuary Plan - Comprehensive Conservation and Management Plan and conduct activities to support EPA national goals for the Columbia River Basin.
