Opportunity Summary:
The Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) offered this discretionary grant opportunity under Funding Opportunity Number FR 5300 N 06 to help local and tribal governments reduce lead-based paint hazards in privately owned housing. It combines two closely related programs: the Lead Based Paint Hazard Control Grant Program, which supports broad, comprehensive local efforts to find and control lead hazards, and the Lead Hazard Reduction Demonstration Grant Program, which targets urban jurisdictions with the most severe needs and supports similar identification and hazard control work. In both cases, the focus is on protecting residents, especially children, from the health risks associated with lead exposure by funding practical, on-the-ground interventions in eligible owner-occupied and rental homes.
The core purpose of both programs is to enable jurisdictions to run a structured lead hazard control initiative rather than isolated, one-off projects. That typically means building local capacity to locate at-risk housing, assess lead-based paint hazards, and carry out hazard control measures that reduce or eliminate exposure. Eligible housing under the announcement is privately owned and may be either rental or owner-occupied, reflecting HUDs intent to reach families wherever they live, not only in publicly assisted housing. The demonstration program is positioned for the highest-need urban areas, while the hazard control program is framed more generally for tribes, states, and local governments undertaking comprehensive programs.
Eligible applicants include federally recognized Native American tribal governments, state governments, city or township governments, county governments, and special district governments. The opportunity also allows multiple local government units, or multiple local governments, to apply together as a consortium, as long as they clearly designate one lead applicant to act as the primary coordinating entity. A key eligibility condition applies to state governments and Native American tribal applicants: they must have an EPA-authorized lead-based paint training and certification program. HUD pointed applicants to EPAs training and certification information (http://www.epa.gov/lead/pubs/traincert.html), which signals that worker training and proper certification are treated as essential safeguards for safe lead work practices.
The announcement lists two CFDA program numbers that correspond to the two funding streams: 14.900 (Lead Based Paint Hazard Control in Privately Owned Housing) and 14.905 (Lead Hazard Reduction Demonstration Grant Program). Funding was provided as grants, and cost sharing or matching was required, meaning recipients needed to contribute non-federal resources toward the overall project budget. The estimated total funding available across the opportunity was $117,000,000, with an award ceiling of $7,070,000 per award, indicating HUD anticipated making multiple awards but limiting the maximum size of any single grant.
Key timeline details show the opportunity was posted and created on May 29, 2009, with an original and current closing date of July 20, 2009, and an archive date of July 21, 2009. For applicants or interested parties needing more details beyond the summary notice, HUD provided a funds-available link and two contacts: Program contact Bill Nellis at 202-402-7686 and Administrative contact Curtissa L. Coleman at 202-402-7580.
