Opportunity Summary:

The Black Lung/Coal Miner Clinics Program (BLCP) is a discretionary grant opportunity from the Health Resources and Services Administration (HRSA) focused on protecting and improving the respiratory health of coal miners and others exposed to coal dust through mining work. The program is designed to actively reach miners who may need help (including both currently working and former miners) and to deliver clinical and support services that reduce the impact of respiratory impairment, improve overall health status, and help individuals manage chronic lung conditions linked to coal dust exposure. A second core aim is strengthening coordination between the clinics and other health, social service, and benefits systems so miners can more easily access the broader set of resources they may qualify for, rather than receiving care in isolation.

From a funding standpoint, this opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number HRSA-10-160) is offered as a grant under the health activity category, with an estimated total funding level of $5,250,000 and an expected 15 awards. It is listed under CFDA 93.965, Coal Miners Respiratory Impairment Treatment Clinics and Services. There is no cost-sharing or matching requirement, which means applicants are not required to provide non-federal matching funds as a condition of receiving an award.

Eligibility is narrow and is largely aimed at continuity of services in areas already served. Applicants are limited to programs that were already funded and whose project periods were ending in fiscal year 2010, as well as state, public, and nonprofit organizations that propose to serve the same geographic areas or populations currently served by those existing programs. In other words, the funding is structured to sustain or transition services for established black lung clinic service areas rather than to expand into entirely new regions without prior program coverage.

Key dates show that the announcement was posted on November 20, 2009, created on January 19, 2010, and had an application closing date of January 14, 2010 (with the same date shown as both the original and current closing date). The opportunity was later archived on April 3, 2010. For access issues or assistance with the full announcement, HRSA directed applicants to its call center support via CallCenter@HRSA.GOV and the HRSA call center phone numbers listed in the notice.
