Opportunity Summary:
This opportunity is a continuation funding announcement from the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (HHS-CDC), specifically within the National Center for Environmental Health (NCEH). It is titled "Maintenance and Enhancement of the Environmental Public Health Tracking Network" and is identified by funding opportunity number CDC RFA EH14-140303CONT16. The focus is on sustaining and improving the Environmental Public Health Tracking Network, which is CDC's national effort to integrate data about environmental hazards, exposures, and related health outcomes in a consistent way so partners can monitor trends, identify disparities, and support public health decision-making.
The mechanism is a cooperative agreement, which typically means CDC anticipates having substantial involvement in the work beyond what occurs under a standard grant. In practice, that often includes close coordination on technical approaches, data standards, reporting expectations, platform or system enhancements, evaluation activities, and alignment with national tracking priorities. The activity category is listed as "Health" and the CFDA number associated with this program is 93.070, which corresponds to CDC's environmental public health tracking work.
The opportunity is categorized as continuation funding, indicating it is primarily intended to support ongoing efforts rather than launch a brand-new, open competition. That positioning usually implies the recipients are likely existing awardees or otherwise pre-identified partners who have been funded under a prior related announcement and are eligible to continue the work, assuming they meet performance and administrative requirements. The eligibility line is shown as "Others (see text field entitled Additional Information on Eligibility for clarification)," which signals that the detailed eligibility rules would be in the full announcement text; however, the summary provided here does not include that additional eligibility narrative.
Key administrative details include an original and current closing date of April 22, 2016, and a posted/creation date of March 6, 2016. The listing shows an award ceiling of 0 and expected awards of 0, which commonly occurs in continuation notices or administrative postings where funding amounts and the number of awards are not represented in the public abstract, are handled through separate continuation processes, or are not being competed in the same way as a standard discretionary grant. In other words, those fields should not be read as indicating no money is available; rather, they often reflect how continuation actions are recorded in the grants system.
Overall, the intent of this continuation cooperative agreement is to keep the Environmental Public Health Tracking Network operating effectively while strengthening it over time. That generally covers maintaining data feeds and systems, improving data quality and timeliness, enhancing analytic and visualization capabilities, supporting consistent standards across jurisdictions and data sources, and ensuring the network remains useful for surveillance, situational awareness, and public health action related to environmental hazards and associated health outcomes.
