Synopsis

This award is open ONLY to those States, Territories, and Indian tribes involved together with States and/or Territories in an interstate organization, with an ANS Management Plan that has been approved by the ANS Task Force. A list of the eligible entities that may apply for the funding opportunity occurs in the Eligibility section of this funding opportunity. The proposal process includes a pre-proposal review that occurs outside of GrantSolutions and then after receiving approval of their pre-proposal, eligible applicants can complete the full application process withing GrantSolutions. The grant program also includes a 25% cost-share (of total project costs) and a 5% limit on administrative costs.
