About this opportunity

The Pipeline Emergency Response Grant (PERG) program, administered by the Department of Transportation's Pipeline and Hazardous Material Safety Administration (PHMSA), seeks applications from state, county, and local governments to develop and deliver comprehensive training programs for emergency responders managing pipeline incidents. The grant aims to enhance emergency personnel's capabilities in responding to gas and hazardous liquid pipeline emergencies in high consequence areas, with a focus on improving safety, response planning, and incident management. Key contract requirements include developing training curricula, conducting training exercises, and potentially procuring specialized training equipment related to pipeline emergency response. Evaluation criteria will assess technical merit, programmatic considerations, safety benefits, and equity components, with emphasis on serving disadvantaged communities. Critical dates include a questions deadline of June 13, 2025, and an application submission deadline of June 20, 2025, at 11:59 p.m. EST.

The fiscal year 2025 PERG program will distribute approximately $3,202,331, with individual awards not exceeding $250,000 per recipient. The performance period for awarded grants will be up to 24 months, with anticipated award dates no later than September 30, 2025. Recipients may request up to 50% of funds upon award execution, with the remainder available after an approved mid-term progress report. Eligible applicants must be registered in grants.gov and maintain an active System for Award Management (SAM) registration. The program requires no cost-sharing or matching funds and will support training activities across various jurisdictions where pipeline infrastructure presents potential emergency response challenges.
