About Clean Air Act Tribal Grants and SIRG Funding

Sections 103 and 105 of the Clean Air Act allow EPA to provide grant support to tribes to help build tribal knowledge and increase Tribes' capacity to manage air quality issues.

Section 306 of the Toxic Substances Control Act allows EPA to provide grant support to Tribes to help develop and implement radon programs. The ultimate goal for the program is to measure, document and report the risk reduction being achieved through the proposed Tribal activities.
