Opportunity Summary:
The National Acute Hazardous Substance Incidents Surveillance and Prevention Program is a CDC funding opportunity designed to help jurisdictions strengthen public health readiness around chemical and other hazardous substance emergencies. The core goal is capacity-building within state and local health departments so they can run a state-based surveillance system that consistently tracks acute hazardous substance incidents, analyzes where and why these events occur, and uses that information to identify community vulnerabilities. Beyond simply collecting data, the program emphasizes using surveillance findings to carry out proactive prevention activities that reduce risks tied to those vulnerabilities, such as targeting recurring incident types, high-risk locations, or gaps in preparedness and response.
This opportunity was issued by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention through its Procurement and Grants Office as a discretionary cooperative agreement, meaning recipients typically work in partnership with CDC and follow programmatic guidance while carrying out the funded activities. The funding announcement number is CDC RFA TS09-905, and it falls under the health activity category with CFDA 93.204, described as Surveillance of Hazardous Substance Emergency Events. The program does not require cost sharing or matching funds, which can make participation more feasible for agencies that may not have dedicated resources to contribute financially.
The total estimated funding amount is approximately $1,000,000, with an award ceiling of $200,000 per recipient. CDC anticipated making five to seven awards under this announcement, indicating support for a small set of jurisdictions to implement or enhance surveillance and prevention capacity at a meaningful level, but within a defined budget per award. The estimated funding date listed in the announcement is August 31, 2009, reflecting when CDC expected awards to begin.
Eligibility is broad across governmental entities that have a role in public health and emergency preparedness. Eligible applicants include state governments, county governments, and city or township governments, as well as special district governments. Tribal entities are also eligible, including federally recognized tribal governments and other Native American tribal organizations. In practical terms, the design suggests CDC intended to support jurisdictions that can integrate hazardous substance incident surveillance into public health operations, connect with emergency response partners, and use the resulting data to drive prevention efforts.
Key dates in the posting show the opportunity was posted and created on June 1, 2009, with an original and current closing date of July 16, 2009, and an archive date of August 15, 2009. Applicants were directed to consult the full announcement on Grants.gov for complete program requirements, deliverables, and application instructions. For access issues related to the electronic announcement, the listed point of contact was the CDC PGOTIMS (Technical Information Management Section) at 770-488-2700.
