Communities are now able to apply to a Grantmaker for a subgrant to fund a range of different environmental project activities, including (but not limited to,) some relevant to our program:
- Monitoring of effluent discharges from industrial facilities.
- Water quality & sampling.
- Small cleanup projects.
- Stormwater issues and green infrastructure.
- Pesticides and other toxic substances.
The Grantmakers will issue subgrants to community-based nonprofit organizations and other eligible organizations representing disadvantaged communities.

The subgrants are expected to become available by Fall of 2024.
