The Pollution Prevention Grant Program has recently announced the availability of Pollution Prevention (P2) Grants for 2009. The Pollution Prevention Grant Program supports State and Tribal technical assistance programs which in turn help businesses identify better environmental strategies and solutions for reducing or eliminating waste at the source. Grants will be awarded and managed by each of EPA's 10 Regional Pollution Prevention Program Offices.
The goal of the P2 Grant Program is to assist businesses in adopting P2 practices that reduce pollution at its source, including the conservation of water and energy. EPA is interested in supporting projects that reflect a comprehensive and coordinated approach toward implementing P2 practices on behalf of businesses within the State or Tribe.
P2 includes what is commonly called “in-process recycling,” but not “out-of-process recycling”. Some examples of P2 projects include equipment or technology modifications, process or procedure modifications, reformulation or redesign of products, substitution of raw materials, and improvements in housekeeping, maintenance, training, or inventory control.
Grant proposals must be received by the applicable Regional P2 Program Coordinator no later than April 17, 2009.
