DEC is requesting proposals for the support of multiple projects involving preliminary design, final design and/or implementation.

A minimum of 50% of the awarded funds must support projects that cost at or below $20,000. Up to $1,500,000 is available for this block grant (award dollars may be subject to change based on funding limitations or if additional dollars become available), with a minimum grant size of $500,000. The recipient will have up to 2 years from the date of the grant agreement execution to complete and close the grant.
