About this opportunity
The National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences (NIEHS) is seeking cooperative agreement applications to support the development of model training programs for workers engaged in activities related to hazardous materials and waste within the Department of Energy (DOE) nuclear weapons complex. The goal of this funding opportunity is to prevent work-related harm through safety and health training. Eligible applicant types include state/local governments, tribal organizations, higher education institutions, non-profits, and small businesses. The training programs should consist of classroom, online, and practical training to raise worker knowledge in protecting themselves and the community from hazardous material exposure. The application deadline is July 22, 2024.
The total funding available is undisclosed, but the NIEHS Hazardous Waste Worker Health and Safety Training program (CFDA 93.142) provides cooperative agreement and project grant support for such model worker health and safety training programs. The training is intended for the tens of thousands of DOE employees required to complete safety and health training at facilities within the DOE nuclear weapons complex.
Synopsis
NIEHS invites applications for cooperative agreements to support the development of model programs for the training and education of workers engaged in activities related to hazardous materials and waste generation, removal, containment, transportation and emergency response within the Department of Energy (DOE) nuclear weapons complex. The aim of this funding opportunity is to prevent work-related harm through safety and health training. The training programs consist of information and practical exercises with the objective of raising the knowledge of workers in protecting themselves and the community from being exposed to hazardous materials encountered during hazardous waste operations; facility decommissioning and decontamination; hazardous materials transportation; environmental restoration of contaminated facilities; or chemical emergency response. Currently, tens of thousands of DOE employees are required to complete safety and health training. The goal of this training is to help reduce the risk of workers being exposed during work activities to hazardous materials and hazardous waste products. The NIEHS/DOE Nuclear Worker Training Program enhances training capabilities at these sites.
