About this opportunity

The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is offering a competitive two-year Pollution Prevention Grant Program to provide technical assistance funding to eligible entities such as states, tribes, universities, and nonprofits. The program seeks projects that will encourage businesses to implement source reduction practices, also known as pollution prevention (P2), through the provision of information, training, and expert advice. Priority will be given to projects focused on reducing toxic chemicals and addressing environmental justice concerns in disadvantaged communities. Applicants must develop at least one P2 case study and one P2 success story detailing the implemented source reduction approaches. Applications will be evaluated on technical approach, partnerships, best practices sharing, reporting plans, past performance, timelines, and budgets.

The program has an approximately $9.94 million budget over the two-year period. Funding will be provided through cooperative agreements and grants. The application deadline is May 17, 2024, and award notifications are anticipated in November 2024. The goal of the program is to help businesses adopt practices that reduce pollution and costs through decreased resource use.

Synopsis

The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is announcing a two-year competitive funding opportunity for awards to eligible entities to provide technical assistance (TA) to businesses to encourage the development and implementation of source reduction practices also known as pollution prevention or "P2". EPA is requiring recipients to develop at least one P2 case study and one P2 success story during the grant period. A P2 case study should provide detailed technical information on one or two specific source reduction/P2 practices implemented by a business, and the benefits achieved, so that other P2 TA providers or interested businesses have enough technical information that they can learn from and replicate those P2 practices. A P2 case study should focus on P2 approaches that are new and not widely known or adopted and/or where the recipient believes detailed information on the project could support more widespread project replication.
