Opportunity Summary:
The FY 2011 Training Workshop Support Activities for the State Revolving Fund (SRF) Programs opportunity is a discretionary EPA funding competition designed to support national-level training for the two SRF programs: the Clean Water State Revolving Fund and the Drinking Water State Revolving Fund. The core purpose is to fund an organization that can plan, organize, and deliver ongoing workshop support, with an emphasis on helping SRF programs strengthen infrastructure financing knowledge and practice through structured, recurring training events.
Under this announcement, EPA is seeking proposals to provide end-to-end training workshop support for four annual National SRF Infrastructure Financing and Training Workshops. The work is centered on practical workshop delivery needs such as planning agendas and content, preparing materials, coordinating logistics, and providing technical support that helps make the workshops useful to SRF practitioners and stakeholders. In addition to the organizational and technical tasks required to run the workshops, the award may also be used to promote participation and to cover travel expenses for non-federal personnel so that state, local, tribal, and other eligible non-federal attendees can take part.
The funding is provided through a cooperative agreement, which typically means EPA expects to have substantial involvement during the project period (for example, collaborating on workshop objectives, reviewing deliverables, or coordinating on content and timing). EPA expects to make one award totaling $360,000, with the award floor and ceiling both set at $360,000, indicating a single fixed-amount award rather than a range. There is no cost-sharing or matching requirement listed for applicants.
The legal authority for the grant is Section 104(b)(3) of the Clean Water Act, and that authority significantly shapes what can and cannot be funded. Allowable activities are limited to conducting or promoting the coordination and acceleration of research, investigations, experiments, training, demonstrations, surveys, and studies related to understanding and addressing water pollution (including its causes, effects, extent, prevention, reduction, and elimination). As a result, this opportunity is not intended to pay for construction, on-the-ground infrastructure implementation, or other direct implementation projects. In plain terms, the money is for training and related support activities, not for building or upgrading facilities.
Eligible applicants include a wide mix of public and educational entities, such as state governments, county governments, and city or township governments, as well as federally recognized Native American tribal governments. Both public/state-controlled institutions of higher education and private institutions of higher education are eligible, along with other applicants as described in the full announcement (with Section III referenced for eligibility details and any additional conditions).
Key administrative details include the funding opportunity number EPA OW OWM 10 01 and the CFDA listing 66.436 (Surveys, Studies, Investigations, Demonstrations, and Training Grants and Cooperative Agreements, Section 104(b)(3)). The opportunity was posted on September 21, 2010, and the application deadline was October 29, 2010, with the archive date listed as November 28, 2010.
