Assistance Listing 93.115

The Department of Health and Human Services Public Health Service administered CFDA 93.115 to fund environmental health research, with the most recent grant award disbursed on June 18, 2007—nearly 19 years ago. Do not pursue this program.

The program is inactive. The portfolio shows a steep collapse in award activity: annual awards declined from 117 in 2004 to just one in 2007, and no grants have been awarded since June 2007. The 550 total awards spanning 2000–2007 generated $227.1 million in combined federal obligations, but the funding stream has ceased.

When active, the program funded environmental health research projects through Project Grants, which comprised 99.8 percent of the assistance mix. Recent awards addressed occupational and environmental exposure research—including beryllium biorepository research, life-risk calculation methods, and epidemiological investigations into specific environmental contaminants. Representative 2006 awards included a $6.5 million multi-year contract investigating occupational health outcomes and several research grants in the $200,000–$1.9 million range. One award from June 2006 (Project Grant 5P01ES011627050) obligated $3.16 million.

The Department of Health and Human Services Public Health Service was the sole funder throughout the program's active period, concentrating 100 percent of awards and federal dollars.
