66.110 HEALTHY COMMUNITIES GRANT PROGRAM

(Healthy Communities)

FEDERAL AGENCY:

Region 1, Environmental Protection Agency

AUTHORIZATION:

Toxic Substances Control Act, Section 10; Safe Drinking Water Act, Section 1442(a)&(c); Clean Water Act, Section 104(b)(3); Solid Waste Disposal Act, Section 8001; Federal Insecticide, Fungicide, and Rodenticide Act, Section 20; Marine Protection, Research, & Sanctuaries Act, Section 203; Clean Air Act, Section 103(b)(3); Indian Environmental General Assistance Program Act. OBJECTIVES:

The statutory authorities for this program restrict the use of assistance agreements to support the following activities: conducting or promoting the coordination and acceleration of research, investigations, experiments, training, demonstrations, surveys, and studies relating to the causes, effects (including health and welfare effects), extent, prevention, and elimination of water pollution. Demonstrations must involve new or experimental technologies, methods, or approaches, and it is encouraged that the results of these projects will be disseminated so that others can benefit from the knowledge gained. A project that is accomplished through the performance of routine, traditional, or established practices, or a project that is simply intended to carry out a task rather than transfer information or advance the state of knowledge, however worthwhile the project might be, is not considered a demonstration project. Implementation projects are not eligible for funding under this program.

Grants are awarded to support projects that meet two criteria: 1) They must be located in and directly benefit one or more Target Investment Areas (Environmental Justice Areas of Potential Concern, Places with High Risks from Toxic Air Pollution, Sensitive Populations, and/or Urban Areas); and 2) They must achieve measurable environmental and public health results in one or more of the Target Program Areas (generally defined in the annual competitive funding announcement). Funds for all projects should support activities to provide education, outreach, or training, in the Target Program Areas. The Regional Office will only accept submissions for projects that affect the States, Tribes, and Territories within the six New England States: Connecticut, Maine, Massachusetts, New Hampshire, Rhode Island, and Vermont. Projects that are National in scope are not eligible for funding under this Regional Program.

Asthma: Projects that increase the number of people with asthma who take actions to reduce their exposure to environmental triggers (improved self-management of asthma). Projects should identify, disseminate and promote the use of existing or innovative education and outreach products and services with proven effectiveness. Projects can target geographic areas and various settings (e.g., communities, schools, homes/housing, etc.) and address indoor air quality issues. Healthy homes approaches should include interventions to reduce environmental triggers such as integrated pest management and reduction of indoor air pollutants (e.g. particulate matter, dust, mold, environmental tobacco smoke, etc. Applicants are encouraged to integrate environmental trigger avoidance into comprehensive asthma management

programs, as recommended by the National Asthma Education Prevention Program (NAEPP) http://www.nhlbi.nih.gov/about/naepp/. Applicants are further encouraged to integrate comprehensive asthma management programs into holistic "Healthy Homes" approaches to environmental diseases as well as partnerships with managed care organizations and health care payers to incorporate the environmental aspects of asthma into provider referral and reimbursement systems. Additionally, collaboration among stakeholders is encouraged if it provides a means to reduce the burden of asthma on a state or regional level. While it is appropriate to place environmental trigger avoidance into the broader context of medical management in EPA-funded activities, where non-environmental asthma management (e.g., medical management) activities are proposed, applicants must be prepared to document alternative funding sources for such activities.

Capacity Building on Environmental and Public Health Issues: Projects that organize and sponsor community training events, or other forums that increase citizen involvement in understanding or addressing the causes, effects, extent, reduction, prevention and/or elimination of at least one of the following environmental and public health issues: environmental justice, indoor/ambient air quality, lead, asthma, pesticides, urban rivers/wetlands, chemical risks, recycling, energy conservation, renewable energy, and/or stormwater management; train and educate groups of community stakeholders on methods to identify, reduce, prevent or eliminate exposures to pollution in soil, air or water; train groups, community/neighborhood stakeholders, and/or residents in holistic and comprehensive approaches for promoting pollution prevention efforts in a sustainable manner that improves, protects and/or enhances the ecological health of urban natural resources; integrate environmental justice, green jobs, or green technology to support healthy communities; increase regional, state, tribal, community, and neighborhood access to information, dialogue, collection and use of data (e.g. GIS mapping, risk evaluation, risk mitigation, collecting emissions data, etc.), and/or improve methods of risk characterization; increase collaboration with businesses to improve their environmental performance (including compliance); increase collaboration among residents, businesses, and municipal governments to address community environmental issues (e.g., infrastructure, protecting community assets, etc.), and/or build new or strengthen existing coalitions to address schools, States, or regional programs and at least one or more of the environmental and public health issue(s) previously mentioned are encouraged.

Clean Energy: Projects that promote clean energy, through energy efficiency measures that reduce energy consumption, or through the generation of energy from renewable resources, including solar, wind, biomass, and geothermal sources are priorities for EPA. Priority sectors for energy efficiency and renewables include municipalities, schools, and colleges and universities. Municipal projects should focus on reducing energy consumption within municipal buildings, including offices, schools and wastewater treatment plants. In general, these projects should focus on more efficient use of energy, and water, as well as the potential use of renewable energy to supply electricity or heat to a facility in place of power provided by the local utility.

Healthy Indoor/Outdoor Environments: Projects that focus on reducing and/or preventing childhood lead poisoning, reducing asthma triggers, promoting integrated pest management; reducing childhood exposure to one or more toxins (PCBs, dioxin, mercury, lead, pesticides, etc.), promoting comprehensive healthy homes and other indoor and/or outdoor environments are encouraged. Projects that reduce indoor or ambient air toxics in a city, community or county, including those to create and implement risk management plans, conduct risk screening, build technical training capacity to help reduce community exposure to indoor and or outdoor air toxics are also encouraged. Projects that promote pollution prevention, source reduction, energy conservation, renewable energy, and/or innovative approaches to stormwater management are also encouraged under this category.

Healthy Schools: Projects that train K-12 school teams to implement EPA's Indoor Air Quality Tools for Schools program

(http://www.epa.gov/iaq/schools/tooklit.html) through state-wide, regional, or local workshops; develop or support a systems approach to improving environmental conditions in schools which would include developing a school district wide IAQ management system analogous to TfS; train K-12 school

teams to address asthma triggers, deploy integrated pest management techniques particularly in urban areas and/or tribal schools

(www.epa.gov/iaq/schools/asthma); or efforts which combine several project areas described in this grant solicitation are encouraged. For more information on creating healthy school environments, please visit www.epa.gov/schools.

Narragansett Bay Watershed-Based Water Quality Management: Projects that address priorities and recommendations identified in the draft and/or final Narragansett Bay Region Integrated Plan for the Narragansett Bay watershed, including support for water quality improvement and monitoring, watershed planning and management, and planning for coordinated approaches to address the water quality impacts of nutrients, climate change, stormwater management, invasive species, nonpoint source pollution, water efficiency, and environmental management systems.

Pollution Prevention and Recycling: Projects that prevent pollution at the source of production through toxic use reduction and the more efficient use of materials, energy, water, and natural resources; and projects that reduce environmental impacts by promoting recycling, composting, waste minimization, beneficial reuse, market development, and sustainable purchasing practices. Priority sectors for pollution prevention and recycling include K-12 schools, hospitals and healthcare facilities, marinas, and colleges and universities. K-12 schools projects should focus on more efficient use of energy, water, reduction of waste generation and/or natural resources including recycling, composting, and/or chemical management (www.epa.gov/sc3).

Smart Growth: Projects that encourage compact, mixed-use, transit-oriented, pedestrian-friendly development in urban areas. Smart growth can improve air quality by replacing some motor vehicle trips with walking, biking, and other clean forms of transportation, reducing exposure to airborne pollutants and risk of respiratory illnesses. Smart growth also can improve water quality by reducing impervious surfaces and preserving green spaces both of which can reduce exposure to waterborne pollutants. Examples of smart growth projects include development of plans on ways to reduce vehicle miles traveled, public education and outreach on smart growth.

Urban Natural Resources: Projects that train and educate urban community stakeholders on ways to identify, prevent, reduce, and/or eliminate toxic substances and contamination on vacant lots and open/green space; train and educate the general public or other community stakeholders on causes, effects, extent, reduction, prevention and/or elimination of pollution in urban rivers and other urban natural resources; train and educate groups of urban community stakeholders on methods to identify, reduce, prevent or eliminate exposures to pollution in soil, air or water; train groups, community/neighborhood stakeholders, and/or residents in holistic and comprehensive approaches for promoting pollution prevention efforts in a sustainable manner that improves, protects and/or enhances the ecological health of urban natural resources.

Water Quality Monitoring or Analyses: Projects that focus on determining the quality of a particular water body or watershed, identifying water quality problem(s), and/or determining the cause of pollution through water quality monitoring and/or analyses of water bodies. Projects should involve community groups, educational institutions, watershed groups and/or other organizations. Projects can provide and/or support educational opportunities for students, interns or citizens to learn more about the causes, effects, extent, reduction, prevention and elimination of water pollution.. Projects focusing on urban and/or environmental justice areas are encouraged.

Other Topics and Issues: On an annual basis, the competitive announcement may identify additional funding priorities.
