Description

EPA Region 2’s Radiation and Indoor Air Branch (RIAB) is soliciting multi-year ( up to 4 years) applications from eligible entities (described in Section III.A of this announcement) for assistance agreements. The applications must support demonstration, training, outreach and/or education grants that reduce exposure to indoor air pollutants and yield measurable environmental outcomes in the home or schools or an integration of both. Projects that address areas of greatest need, including environmental justice/underserved communities, where the most risk reduction can be achieved in children, are of greatest priority. The applications from eligible organizations will go through a competitive selection process as outlined later in this document. Organizations whose applications are selected will be invited to submit a full application package. Funds will be awarded to successful applicants as grants under the authority of Section 103(b) (3) of the Clean Air Act.

• County governments
• City or township governments
