Excuse me for being a bit off the topic but thought this may be of interest to the list:

Application Solicitation to Support the National Tribal Water Council  (EPA)

EPA's Office of Water (OW) is soliciting applications from eligible applicants to conduct, coordinate, and promote the acceleration of research, studies, training, and demonstration projects that will support the participation of the National Tribal Water Council (NTWC or Council) and tribes to prevent, reduce, and eliminate pollution to waters, and protect drinking water in Indian country. The successful applicant will support the NTWC, comprised of tribal co-regulators, to increase tribal awareness and expertise on a wide variety of issues related to the quality of tribal water resources, watersheds, drinking water, and the health of tribal communities. The successful applicant will maintain, support, and facilitate the operations of the NTWC, and assist in developing and completing products in coordination with the NTWC that address issues related to ground, surface, and drinking water quality from a tribal perspective. The scope of this work includes: 1) facilitating the Council's actions as a national forum for tribal water managers to interact with each other, with tribes, and directly with EPA (Headquarters and Regions); 2) assisting the NTWC to promote information exchange and sharing of best management practices for addressing water quality and drinking water concerns to tribes and EPA; 3) assisting the NTWC to operate as a network for tribes and conduct outreach activities to tribes on water resource protection topics; and 4) conducting studies in coordination with the NTWC that identify and analyze high priority, water-related issues and actions from a tribal perspective related to the Safe Drinking Water Act (SDWA) and the Clean Water Act (CWA). These actions are intended to support and reflect a national tribal perspective, and to be conducted and coordinated through the NTWC. Funds awarded under this announcement will also be used by the recipient to support NTWC member travel expenses for participation at meetings as identified in the cooperative agreement (i.e., funding of travel expenses of NTWC members).
DEADLINE: April 11, 2011
