Opportunity Summary:
The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), through its Office of Pesticide Programs (OPP), announced a discretionary funding opportunity to select one organization to serve as the Administrator for the Tribal Pesticide Program Council (TPPC). The TPPC functions as a national forum where tribal pesticide and environmental officials can bring forward on-the-ground pesticide program implementation issues to EPA, provide input on national pesticide policies that affect tribes, connect with one another to share practical information and strategies, and help advance the development and capacity of tribal pesticide programs. In practical terms, the funded Administrator would be expected to support and sustain the TPPC as a working network and communication bridge between tribes and EPA on pesticide-related matters.
The award is structured as a cooperative agreement, which generally means EPA anticipates substantial involvement during the project period rather than operating at arm's length as it might under a traditional grant. The total estimated funding over a five-year period is $1,000,000, with an anticipated $195,000 available in fiscal year 2009. EPA expected to make a single award (ExpectedAwards: 1), so this opportunity was essentially a competitive selection for one lead Administrator organization to coordinate TPPC support activities across the full project term. No cost sharing or matching funds were required, which lowers the barrier for eligible applicants that may not have non-federal funds available.
The opportunity was posted on April 24, 2009 (Funding Opportunity Number: EPA OPP 2009 001), with an application deadline of June 2, 2009; the listing indicates applicants needed to consult the full announcement, especially Section IV, for specific submission instructions and any detailed due date requirements. The program was cataloged under CFDA 66.716, described broadly as research, development, monitoring, public education, training, demonstrations, and studies within the environmental funding activity category. The listing was later archived on July 2, 2009.
Eligibility was broad and included public and state-controlled institutions of higher education, private institutions of higher education, federally recognized Native American tribal governments, state governments, county governments, city or township governments, and nonprofit organizations with 501(c)(3) status (other than institutions of higher education). The announcement also referenced additional eligible applicants under an "Others" category, with the details and any constraints directed to Section III of the full announcement. For applicants who could not access the full announcement electronically, the EPA provided a point of contact: Mary Powell at (703) 305-7384.
