Opportunity Information: Apply for EPA HQ OPP 2018 001
The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is offering a discretionary funding opportunity to support the National Pesticide Information Center (NPIC), a national public service that helps people get clear, objective, science-based information about pesticides. The center operates as a centralized resource for pesticide-related questions and concerns, delivering information through multiple channels including a public website, a toll-free telephone line, and outreach activities. A key part of the work is providing direct, practical assistance to the public by having trained experts respond to inquiries about pesticide risks, safe and legal use, and other common issues that come up when pesticides are used in homes, workplaces, agriculture, or community settings.
The NPIC service is designed to help callers and website users understand topics such as the health and environmental risks associated with pesticide use, restrictions and requirements that apply to specific products or situations, and where to go for regulatory or enforcement assistance when a concern involves potential violations. It also helps guide people on how to report possible pesticide incidents and what information may be useful when documenting a concern. In addition to answering questions, NPIC has a secondary function: staff collect information about suspected pesticide incidents that callers choose to share voluntarily. This incident-related information can help build broader awareness of the kinds of exposures, misuse concerns, or adverse effects people report, while still keeping the primary purpose focused on education and information delivery.
This opportunity is offered as a cooperative agreement, meaning the EPA expects to have substantial involvement in the funded project rather than providing a hands-off grant. The program falls under the environmental funding activity category and is listed under CFDA number 66.716. The EPA anticipates making a single award (Expected Awards: 1), with an award ceiling of $5,000,000, supporting one organization or lead applicant to operate and maintain the NPIC service at a national scale.
The opportunity is identified as Funding Opportunity Number EPA HQ OPP 2018 001, titled NATIONAL PESTICIDE INFORMATION CENTER. It was created on May 29, 2018, and the original closing date was July 30, 2018, with applicants instructed to consult the full announcement (including Section IV) for exact submission methods, deadlines, and eligibility clarifications.
