Water Quality Project Development Block Grant

ACRPC is administering a 2022 Environmental Conservation (DEC) Project Development Block Grant to subgrant up to $34,000 to develop water quality improvement projects.

Activities covered by this grant include (but are not limited to): - reviewing and prioritizing water quality projects listed in sources like stormwater master plans or tactical basin plans; - contacting landowners to assess interest and feasibility; - reviewing permitting concerns; - meeting with towns; - working with partners and/or online tools to estimate phosphorus reduction potential - developing basic concept drawings If you are interested in applying, you can find our RFP and other helpful information at https://acrpc.org/grants-rfps/.
