In support of Rob Northrops Green Infrastructure program in January (see previous emails)
Green Infrastructure Technical Assistance Program
Communities across the country are interested in implementing green infrastructure to protect water quality, provide ecosystem services, increase resiliency to climate change, create economic opportunities, and support a high quality of life. EPA is offering direct assistance to communities interested in implementing green infrastructure. This technical assistance will serve both to advance the adoption of green infrastructure programs in selected communities and to develop knowledge and tools that can be transferred to other communities and to a national audience.
The value of the EPA assistance available in 2014 is approximately $400,000. EPA plans to select five to seven communities that will each receive approximately $60,000 in technical assistance via direct contractor support.
Deadline for Applications: January 24, 2014
