EPA Hosts Sept. 8 Virtual Listening Session On Developing New Pollution Prevention Grant Opportunity

The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency will host a September 8 webinar on developing new Pollution Prevention Grant opportunties under the federal Bipartisan Infrastructure Law starting at 1:00 p.m.

The grant opportunities are focused on increasing supply and demand for safer, environmentally preferable products, such as those certified by EPA’s Safer Choice program or identified by EPA’s Environmentally Preferable Purchasing program.

EPA wants to hear your thoughts to help inform the development of this grant opportunity. 

In the listening session, EPA will provide background on the grant opportunity and then lead a discussion to get feedback on topics such as:

-- Potential project ideas and measuring success of those ideas

-- Opportunities and challenges that exist within advancing Environmentally Preferable Purchasing and Safer Choice

-- Partnering with other organizations on projects

-- Addressing climate change or environmental justice

-- Grant funding amounts
