Opportunity Summary:
The funding opportunity titled 14.PMWRA.PALAU.RFA (Funding Opportunity Number: PM PMWRA 14 027) is a discretionary grant program administered by the U.S. Department of State, Bureau of Political-Military Affairs, Office of Weapons Removal and Abatement (often referred to as PM/WRA). The purpose of the grant is to fund explosive remnants of war (ERW) survey and clearance activities in the Republic of Palau. In practical terms, this means supporting operations that locate, assess, and safely remove or destroy leftover explosive hazards from past conflicts so land and coastal areas can be used safely and communities face reduced risk.
The award is structured as a grant (Funding Instrument Type: Grant) and falls under CFDA 19.800, Weapons Removal and Abatement. The opportunity category is listed as "Other," reflecting that it is part of the conventional weapons destruction and related remediation mission set rather than a standard domestic program area. The maximum potential award amount (Award Ceiling) is listed at $500,000, with an Award Floor of $0, indicating there is no stated minimum request size in the summary data. There is no cost-sharing or matching requirement, so applicants are not required to contribute their own funds as a condition of eligibility, which can make participation more feasible for organizations that rely primarily on donor or grant support.
Eligibility is limited to nonprofit organizations, including both nonprofits with 501(c)(3) status and nonprofits without 501(c)(3) status (in both cases, "other than institutions of higher education"). This points to an intent to attract implementing partners such as humanitarian demining operators, specialized clearance NGOs, and similar mission-driven organizations capable of conducting ERW survey and clearance work. Universities and colleges are not included in the eligible applicant categories as presented in the opportunity record.
The timeline in the listing shows the opportunity was posted and created on June 25, 2014, with an original and current closing date of July 23, 2014. The record indicates no changes or extensions to that deadline ("No Explanation" fields). The archive date is August 22, 2014, meaning it is an older, closed opportunity and is no longer accepting applications, but the summary still provides a clear snapshot of what the program was designed to fund during that cycle.
For access and applicant support, the listing directs users to the additional information link labeled 14.PMWRA.PALAU.RFA (which would typically lead to the full announcement and application instructions) and provides Grants.gov customer support contact details for technical issues retrieving the full announcement electronically.
