There is a page limit to the application of 25 pages. Applications in excess of the page limit in their narrative application will have the first 25 pages of the project narrative evaluated by EPA reviewers.

No, subrecipients do not need to be 501C3. Potential applicants should carefully review Section 7 of EPA's Subaward Policy for a full description of entities eligible for subawards. Potential applicants should also review Appendix A: Distinction Between Subrecipients and Contractors. Grants Policy Issuance (GPI) 16-01: EPA Subaward Policy for EPA…
The PR will not complete on-the-ground project work. PRs are responsible for the project RFA and administration of awards made under the project RFA throughout the lifecycle of the award(s).
The anticipated timeline is for a 6-year period, which translates to a cooperative agreement for a 6-year period to the principal recipient. To give an estimate of what a timeline might look like, the PR may take six months to a year to initial establish the project RFA and then…
Full Question If we believe, based on our knowledge of the on-the-ground relevant issues and solutions, that there is a possibility that project subrecipients may apply to achieve projected results for every type of GLRI Action Plan III action (i.e. invasive species control, non-point source pollution runoff reduction, habitat restore/enhance/protect…
Full Question EJ MOP that that we must include in our application are: i) the number of Project Subrecipients receiving a subaward who have never before received EPA or GLRI funds; ii) the number of community members engaged in the program as a result of Principal Recipient efforts; iii) the…

EPA received a similar question related to Coalition Members, and the response applies to all organizations advising or participating in the development of a Project RFA or review and selection of project subrecipients. Any entity privy to or involved in the development of any information that would give them a…
The expectation is that PRs will have knowledge of the community/communities they are looking to serve and will generally understand the budget required to undertake their proposed project(s). EPA will be funding these cooperative agreements with incremental funding. This means that if a PR comes in for and is awarded…
Yes, that is correct. Funding amounts are for the entire 6-year period and not annual amounts.
The cooperative agreement will be funded incrementally and with the award, there will be an initial increment of funding made available. EPA will be looking to the applicants to budget for that. Applicants will estimate funds needed for that first year and will then work with their assigned EPA project…
This is rather open-ended; however, applicants are encouraged to refer to the RFA Evaluation Criteria: Program Approach, as well as RFA Section I.D.: GLEJGP Programmatic Elements for additional guidance.
Yes, with the caveat that the entire state must fall within the historic bounds of the Great Lakes basin. For example, if the Principal Recipient is proposing a GLEJGP for the state of Illinois, projects may fall in the portion of the state within the Great Lakes basin, but not…
Some examples of reasons applications have been disqualified include: Applicant did not complete all of the registrations steps in Grants.gov and could not resolve the issue until 12:01 a.m. the morning after the deadline. Because the applicant could not demonstrate the problem was caused by Grants.gov technical issues, the application…
