Description
The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency’s National Center for Environmental Innovation (NCEI) is soliciting proposals from institutions that are interested in organizing two symposia over four years to promote sharing and transfer of innovative environmental protection approaches among States, EPA, and other primarily governmental representatives. EPA anticipates awarding one cooperative agreement under this solicitation subject to availability of funds and the quality of proposals received. The goal is to increase understanding of new approaches, to facilitate use of proven concepts, and to encourage more innovation in environmental programs.
