Opportunity Summary:

The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), through its Office of International and Tribal Affairs, released a discretionary funding opportunity titled "Air Quality Technical Management Assistance for Indonesia" (Funding Opportunity Number: EPA OITA 2011 001). The agency is seeking proposals under an open, competitive Request for Proposals (RFP) process to support a project focused on strengthening air quality management in Indonesia. The core purpose of the award is to provide technical and management assistance that helps Indonesian counterparts develop, improve, and implement air quality management programs, which can include the institutional, technical, and programmatic building blocks needed to manage air pollution effectively over time.

This opportunity is structured as a Cooperative Agreement, meaning EPA expects to have substantial involvement during the project rather than simply issuing a grant and stepping back. EPA anticipates making a single award (Expected Awards: 1), with the decision dependent on both the availability of funds and the overall quality of proposals received. The initial funding amount is expected to be 250,000, and EPA projects an estimated total of 1.5 million across a five-year period of performance, effectively setting an anticipated multi-year trajectory for a longer-term capacity-building effort. The award ceiling is listed as 1,500,000, with no stated minimum award floor beyond 0, reflecting flexibility in final budgeting within the program limits.

The opportunity falls under the Environment funding activity category and is associated with CFDA Number 66.931, described as International Financial Assistance Projects sponsored by the Office of International and Tribal Affairs. There is no cost-sharing or matching requirement, which reduces barriers for applicants by not requiring non-federal funds as a condition of eligibility. Eligibility is not fully defined in the summary text provided; the listing indicates "Others (see text field entitled Additional Information on Eligibility for clarification)" and directs applicants to Section III of the official announcement for the specific eligibility rules and any limitations on applicant types.

Key dates indicate the notice was posted and created on Feb 22, 2011, with an original and current closing date of Apr 15, 2011 (with the note to review Section IV of the announcement for any additional due date and submission details). The archive date is May 15, 2011, which generally signals when the opportunity would be formally archived in the system after the competition concludes.

For applicants needing help obtaining or accessing the full announcement, the listed point of contact is Katherine Buckley at EPA, reachable at 202-564-6426. The full announcement (linked as "Air Quality Technical Management Assistance for Indonesia") is the authoritative source for detailed program expectations, required proposal contents, evaluation criteria, submission instructions, and eligibility specifics.
