Implementation of the Environmental Public Health Tracking Network | Apply Online

Opportunity Summary:

The grant opportunity titled "Implementation of the Environmental Public Health Tracking Network" is a continuation funding announcement from the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (HHS-CDC), specifically through the National Center for Environmental Health (NCEH). It is issued under Funding Opportunity Number CDC RFA EH14-140503CONT16 and is focused on supporting ongoing work to implement and maintain the Environmental Public Health Tracking Network, a public health effort that integrates data about environmental hazards, exposures, and related health outcomes to improve surveillance and decision-making.

This opportunity is offered as a cooperative agreement, which typically means the CDC expects to have substantial involvement in the funded activities compared to a standard grant. In practice, that structure often includes close collaboration on technical approaches, data standards, performance expectations, and coordination across participating partners to ensure the network functions consistently and produces comparable information across jurisdictions. The activity category is listed as Health, aligning it with public health infrastructure and surveillance goals rather than basic research.

The announcement is categorized as continuation funding, indicating it is intended to extend or support existing recipients or previously funded work rather than launching a brand-new program for first-time applicants. Eligibility is broadly labeled as "Others," with the note that applicants must refer to the announcement's additional eligibility language for precise qualification details. While the posted excerpt does not include that eligibility text, the continuation designation strongly suggests the applicant pool is limited or oriented toward organizations already participating in the tracking network or previously funded under related CDC tracking cooperative agreements.

Key administrative details include an original and current closing date of April 22, 2016, with the opportunity created and posted on March 6, 2016. The expected number of awards is 50, which implies a relatively large cohort of funded partners, often consistent with multi-jurisdiction public health networks where states, local health departments, universities, or other designated entities contribute data and capacity. The listed award ceiling is 0, which generally indicates that a specific maximum amount was not provided in this summary field (often because funding levels may vary by recipient, be specified elsewhere in the full announcement, or be determined through continuation budgeting rather than a single uniform cap).

Overall, the opportunity supports the implementation side of environmental public health tracking: building and sustaining the systems, partnerships, and processes needed to collect, manage, standardize, analyze, and share environmental and health data in a way that helps public health agencies identify trends, respond to environmental health concerns, and inform prevention strategies. The cooperative agreement model and the scale of expected awards point to a coordinated national effort where funded recipients contribute to a shared network that CDC helps guide and align.
