Opportunity Summary:
The Community Health Projects Related to Contamination at Brownfield/Land Reuse Sites (ATSDR CHPs) grant opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number CDC-RFA-TS14-1404) is a CDC/ATSDR cooperative agreement designed to help communities protect and improve public health when contaminated properties are being reused or redeveloped. The core purpose is to make sure health concerns linked to contamination are not treated as an afterthought in redevelopment planning. Instead, applicants are expected to identify potential or existing health issues tied to brownfields or other land reuse sites before redevelopment moves forward, address those issues through practical public health actions, and then assess how community health changes as reuse plans are implemented and redevelopment occurs. The program is aligned with ATSDR's broader mission of promoting healthy and safe environments and preventing harmful exposures to hazardous substances.
This opportunity was categorized as discretionary funding, using a cooperative agreement mechanism, which typically means recipients should expect active involvement from the federal program office beyond what is common in a standard grant. The funding activity category is health, and the award focuses on community-level work where contamination and redevelopment intersect. In practical terms, projects supported under this announcement would generally revolve around activities like evaluating exposure pathways, prioritizing health risks associated with site contamination, improving risk communication with residents and stakeholders, building local capacity to incorporate health into land reuse decisions, and tracking or documenting health-related indicators that may shift as a site is cleaned up or repurposed. A key theme throughout the announcement is that redevelopment can create benefits, but it can also introduce or worsen exposures if health considerations are missed; the projects are meant to ensure redevelopment and health protection move together.
Funding was limited and competitive. The CDC expected to make 2 awards with an estimated total program funding amount of $300,000. The maximum (ceiling) amount per award was $150,000, and the minimum (floor) amount was listed as $0, which generally indicates there was no guaranteed minimum award size and that awards could vary depending on project scope and available funds. There was no cost sharing or matching requirement, so applicants were not required to contribute non-federal funds as a condition of receiving an award, although voluntary leveraged resources are often viewed positively in similar federal competitions.
Eligible applicants were government-based entities and closely affiliated public bodies. The eligibility list included state governments (and their bona fide agents, including Washington, DC), local governments (and their bona fide agents), and territorial governments (and their bona fide agents) across US territories and freely associated states specified in the announcement, including Puerto Rico, the US Virgin Islands, Northern Mariana Islands, American Samoa, Guam, the Federated States of Micronesia, the Republic of the Marshall Islands, and the Republic of Palau. The opportunity also allowed state-controlled institutions of higher education, federally recognized American Indian or Alaska Native tribal governments, and Public Housing Authorities or Indian Housing Authorities when they function as an entity of a state, local, or tribal government. The listing in the source data indicates "Others (see text field entitled Additional Information on Eligibility for clarification)," but the detailed eligibility information provided is centered on public sector and government-affiliated entities rather than private nonprofits or for-profit organizations.
Key administrative details show the posting date as January 17, 2014, with the original closing date of March 19, 2014, later updated to a current closing date of March 20, 2014. The archive date was April 18, 2014, indicating the competition is no longer active. The CFDA number associated with this program was 93.161, identified as the Health Program for the Agency for Toxic Substances and Disease Registry, which helps place the program within the federal public health funding landscape and clarifies the underlying statutory and programmatic home.
For applicants that needed assistance accessing the full announcement materials, the contact provided was the CDC Procurement and Grants Office (PGO), Technical Information Management Section (TIMS), with a phone number of 770-488-2700. The additional information link text in the source indicates the link itself was not active in the listing and instructed users to click the full announcement at the top of the page to access the complete information, implying that full requirements, application components, and review criteria were contained in the complete notice rather than the summary record.
