National Resource Center for Plutonium

The Department of Energy operates the National Resource Center for Plutonium program (CFDA 81.110), which has not disbursed grant awards since January 1995 and shows no recent activity or open grant opportunities.

The program funded the establishment and management of a national resource center for plutonium through a single Cooperative Agreement awarded to an entity in Alabama in January 1995, with an ultimate completion date of October 2000. The program is structured entirely around Cooperative Agreements. The Department of Energy is the sole funding agency under this Assistance Listing. The single recorded federal obligation carries a negative dollar value of $2,274, indicating a prior cost adjustment or closeout transaction rather than active funding.

No grant awards have been disbursed under this program in the past 31 years. No recent grant opportunities are posted. The Assistance Listing appears to remain nominally active in the federal registry but has generated no procurement activity in the contemporary grants environment. Organizations evaluating pursuit of funding under CFDA 81.110 should confirm current program status directly with the Department of Energy before investing business development resources, as the extended funding hiatus and absence of posted opportunities suggest the program may be dormant or superseded by other DOE mechanisms for plutonium research and resource management.
