IMPLEMENTATION OF THE COMPLIANCE/PREVENTION UNDERGROUND STORAGE TANK PROGRAM AND THE CLEANUP OF LEAKING UNDERGROUND STORAGE TANK PROGRAM
U.S. EPA, Funding Opportunity EPA-OLEM-OUST-18-04, 2018

EPA announces the availability of funds and solicits proposals to promote the prevention, identification, corrective action, and management of releases from federally regulated underground storage tanks (USTs) through training of state and tribal personnel, information exchange, dissemination of the results of studies and research electronically, and coordination that promotes cooperation among federal, state, and tribal programs. Funding under this announcement shall be used for activities that support state and tribal underground storage tank compliance/prevention programs and state and tribal leaking underground storage tank cleanup programs. The goals of these cooperative agreements are to provide states and tribes with training opportunities; technical information; communication exchange of research and demonstration projects; and a forum for federal, state, and tribal partners to give insights on lessons learned. See additional information at https://www.epa.gov/grants/implementation-complianceprevention-underground-storage-tank-program-and-cleanup-leaking. The closing date for applications is November 15, 2018. Two awards are anticipated out of an estimated total program funding of $3.2M. Proposals will be accepted from public authorities (state, interstate, intrastate, agencies designated by states or territorial governors to receive UST notifications, federally recognized tribes, and intertribal consortia); public agencies and institutions; and private non-profit organizations and agencies that meet the requirements of Section 8001(a) and (b) of the Solid Waste Disposal Act. Profit-making organizations and the general public are not eligible. http://www.grants.gov/web/grants/view-opportunity.html?oppId=309384
