Can I set up a call with EN grant program staff to address questions while writing my EN grant application?

Applicants with questions about general information and/or eligibility can contact EN Grant Program Manager Erin McGown (ENGrantProgram@epa.gov).

As this is a competitive grant program, EPA staff are unable to meet with potential applicants during the open application period (the time between the publication of the SN and the application due date). Any questions sent over email will be answered in as much detail that is allowable and made publicly available on the EN website FAQs.

Contacts for each EN Project Opportunity (as listed in Appendices A-C) are also listed in SN Section IE. However, these contacts (like EN grant program staff) are restricted in what they can share with potential applicants, as they cannot provide any information that could provide a competitive advantage during application review. However, they can share basic information and help point applicants to available resources. Successful applicants are also encouraged to reach out to these contacts after award for project-specific technical advice.
