Opportunity Summary:
The FY11 Region 06 Wetland Program Development Grants opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number EPA REG06WPDG 2011) is a discretionary funding competition run by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency to help governments strengthen wetland programs. The focus is on building, improving, or refining wetland program capacity at the state, tribal, and local levels, consistent with the wetland program development goals described in the announcement's funding opportunity description. Awards are offered as either grants or cooperative agreements, meaning projects may range from relatively independent grantee-led work to efforts where EPA has more direct involvement depending on the specific award terms.
Eligible applicants are limited to government-related entities. States, federally recognized Tribes, local government agencies, interstate agencies, and intertribal consortia can apply. Universities may apply only if they are officially an agency of a state government, and the application must include documentation showing the university is chartered as part of that state government structure. Nonprofit organizations are explicitly not eligible to compete under this request for proposals, which is an important restriction for partnerships and prime applicant decisions.
EPA expected to make about 10 awards under this competition, with an estimated total funding amount of $1,490,000. Individual awards are anticipated to range from a minimum (floor) of $25,000 to a maximum (ceiling) of $250,000. The program falls under CFDA 66.461, Regional Wetland Program Development Grants, and it includes a cost-sharing or matching requirement, so applicants should plan for non-federal contributions as part of the project budget and financing strategy.
The opportunity was posted on May 18, 2011, and the application closing date was June 27, 2011, with the archive date listed as July 27, 2011. Applicants were directed to consult the full announcement, especially Section IV, for the precise due dates, submission procedures, and any additional administrative requirements.
