About this opportunity

The FY 2025 Supplemental Public Sector Training (SPST) Grant is being offered by the U.S. Department of Transportation's Pipeline and Hazardous Materials Safety Administration (PHMSA). The grant program seeks national nonprofit fire service organizations to conduct hazardous materials (HAZMAT) response training, including train-the-trainer programs for HAZMAT instructors and training for individuals responsible for responding to HAZMAT incidents. Applications are due by June 20, 2025, at 11:59 p.m. EST, with questions due by March 10, 2025. Eligible applicants must demonstrate expertise in HAZMAT response training and comply with various federal regulations and reporting requirements outlined in the grant terms and conditions.

The SPST Grant Program has $2 million in total funding available, with individual awards ranging from $500,000 to $1,000,000. The period of performance is 12-24 months, starting October 1, 2025, and awards are expected to be made by September 30, 2025. The grant falls under the Interagency Hazardous Materials Public Sector Training and Planning Grants program (CFDA 20.703), which focuses on enhancing HAZMAT emergency preparedness and response capabilities across state, local, tribal, and territorial entities.

The SPST Grant Program was authorized by Congress in the Hazardous Materials Transportation Authorization Act of 1994 (P. L. 103¿311), which amended 49 U.S.C. § 5116 and added a new subsection (i) concerning supplemental training grants. SPST grants are open to national nonprofit fire service organizations to train instructors to conduct HAZMAT response training programs for individuals with statutory responsibility to respond to HAZMAT accidents and incidents. To the extent determined appropriate, SPST grant funds may also be used to train individuals responsible for responding to accidents and incidents involving hazardous material.
