OpportunityTitle: Clean Ports Program: Climate and Air Quality Planning Competition
AdditionalInformationOnEligibility: See Section III of Notice of Funding Opportunity for eligibility information
Description: The EPA Office of Transportation and Air Quality (OTAQ) is issuing this NOFO to announce the availability of funds and solicit applications from eligible entities to conduct climate and air quality planning activities under the EPA&#8217;s Clean Ports Program. The EPA&#8217;s Clean Ports Program will fund climate and air quality planning activities at United States ports &#8211; including emissions inventories, strategy analysis, community engagement, and resiliency measure identification &#8211; that will build the capacity of port stakeholders to continue to reduce pollution and transition to zero-emissions (ZE) operations over time. The Clean Ports Program will also fund ZE port equipment and infrastructure as part of a separate NOFO to reduce mobile source emissions (criteria pollutants, air toxics, and/or greenhouse gases) at United States ports, delivering cleaner air for communities across the country. This new funding opportunity, made possible by funding from the Inflation Reduction Act, builds on the EPA&#8217;s Ports Initiative, an ongoing program that helps our nation&#8217;s ports, a critical part of our infrastructure and supply chain, address public health and environmental impacts on surrounding communities.
