Opportunity Summary:
The grant opportunity titled 15.PMWRA.IraqSouth.NOFO (Funding Opportunity Number PM PMWRA 15 036) is a U.S. Department of State program issued through the Bureau of Political-Military Affairs, Office of Weapons Removal and Abatement (PM/WRA). It is a discretionary grant solicitation focused on humanitarian mine action in Iraq during fiscal years 2015/2016, specifically supporting activities such as humanitarian demining, land and/or hazard survey, and explosive ordnance disposal (EOD). The overall intent is to reduce the threat to civilians and support safe access and recovery by addressing landmines, unexploded ordnance, and other explosive remnants of war through organized clearance and disposal operations, with the detailed project goals, objectives, and technical application requirements provided in the full notice of funding opportunity.
Financially, PM/WRA anticipated making a single award under this announcement (Expected Awards: 1), with an estimated total funding amount of up to USD 2,500,000. The notice lists an award ceiling of USD 3,000,000 and an award floor of USD 0, indicating that proposed budgets could vary widely depending on the scale and design of the project, while still being bounded by the maximum. Cost sharing or matching is not required, meaning applicants are not obligated to contribute their own funds as a condition of eligibility, though applicants sometimes still choose to leverage additional resources to strengthen their proposals (the notice itself simply indicates no match requirement).
The opportunity falls under CFDA 19.800, Weapons Removal and Abatement, and uses the grant funding instrument type. Eligible applicants are nonprofit organizations, including both nonprofits that have 501(c)(3) status and nonprofits that do not have 501(c)(3) status (in both cases, other than institutions of higher education). In practical terms, the announcement is aimed at qualified humanitarian mine action implementers and similar nonprofit entities capable of planning and delivering technical field operations such as surveys, clearance, and EOD in the Iraq context, consistent with PM/WRA expectations and any referenced technical standards described in the full solicitation.
In terms of timing, the opportunity was posted and created on June 5, 2015, with an original and current closing date of July 5, 2015, and it was archived on August 4, 2015.
