This PHMSA Competitive Academic Agreement Program (CAAP) grant is for funding innovative research aimed at improving pipeline safety and integrity. Specifically, the FY 2024 program prioritizes research and development (R&D) that actively advances equity. It seeks to achieve this by encouraging the participation of Minority Serving Institutions (MSIs) in research activities and by integrating equity considerations directly into the research topics. For instance, projects could focus on mitigating climate change through the safe transportation of hydrogen, while simultaneously addressing risks posed to socially vulnerable communities by aging cast iron pipelines. This initiative underscores a commitment to both technological advancement and social responsibility in pipeline infrastructure. The deadline for applications is May 17, 2024.
