This grant, offered by the EPA Region 10, Office of Water and Watersheds, Watersheds Unit, is for eligible agencies and organizations in Alaska, Idaho, Oregon, and Washington States and Tribes. Its purpose is to coordinate and accelerate research, studies, training, investigations, and demonstration projects aimed at enhancing the capacity for effective development and implementation of Total Maximum Daily Loads (TMDLs) for impaired waters. Funding is not for routine TMDL activities supported by other Clean Water Act grants; rather, TMDL production should be an incidental outcome. Approximately $400,000 is available for about 8 awards, typically ranging from $25,000 to $80,000, though other amounts will be considered.
