About this program

The Environmental Protection Agency's Region 9 Multi-Media and Geographic Priority Projects program (CFDA 66.117) currently has no funding available; the most recent grant award was disbursed in February 2008, nearly eighteen years ago.

The program funds surveys, studies, investigations, demonstrations, training, and outreach addressing multiple environmental media or exposure vectors within EPA Region 9—Arizona, California, Hawaii, Nevada, Navajo Nation lands in New Mexico, and U.S.-affiliated Pacific islands. Funded projects must prevent, reduce, and eliminate pollution; identify and demonstrate pollution control techniques; evaluate economic, social, and environmental effects of alternative strategies; and promote coordination among federal, state, local, and non-governmental organizations. Projects may target regional environmental priorities including air basins, watersheds, agricultural sectors, critical ecosystems, and sensitive populations, and may employ innovative methods, stakeholder collaboration, leveraged funding, or smart-growth planning approaches.

The portfolio reflects minimal recent activity: one Project Grant totaling $26 thousand was obligated in February 2008 for mercury deposition network monitoring and chemical analysis in northern Nevada. The Environmental Protection Agency serves as sole funder under the program.

The program description identified potential multi-media priorities for fiscal year 2009 including energy and climate change, Pacific Island infrastructure, agriculture in the San Joaquin Valley, and information management support; however, the source indicates no funding priorities were determined for FY2009 due to unavailable appropriations. No current grant opportunities are posted, and no funding is currently available for this program. Any pursuit of this line would require confirmation that appropriations have been restored and a new opportunity has been announced.

Objective and description

Objective

To fund projects, including surveys, studies, investigations, demonstrations, training, and outreach, that address more than one medium or vector of human health or ecological risk and that seek to (1) prevent, reduce, and eliminate pollution; (2) identify, develop, and demonstrate pollution control techniques and technology; (3) evaluate the economic, social, and environmental effects of alternative mechanisms and strategies; and (4) promote coordination and collaboration between and among federal, state, and local governmental and non-governmental organizations. Projects will address regional environmental and geographic priorities, possibly including air basins and watersheds, economic sectors such as agriculture, critical ecosystems, and sensitive populations. Projects may demonstrate innovative methods and involve stakeholder collaboration, leveraged funding, or socially equitable and ecologically sensitive land-use and transportation planning ("smart growth"). Projects funded under this program must be carried out within the area of U.S. EPA's Region 9, comprising the states and tribal lands of Arizona, California, Hawaii, Nevada, Navajo Nation lands in New Mexico, and the Pacific islands associated with the United States. Multi-media assistance agreements cite two or more environmental statutes, appropriations legislation, or applicable legislative history as statutory authority. Multi-media priorities for FY2009/10 will likely include energy and climate change, Pacific Island infrastructure, agriculture in the San Joaquin Valley, and information management support. No funding is currently available for this program. Funding Priority - Fiscal Year 2009: Region 9 has not determined FY2009 funding priorities for multi-media geographic initiatives as no funding is currently available.
