Overview

The US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is soliciting applications for FY 2007 Alaska Tribal Multi-Media Projects that will demonstrate approaches for enhancing the human health or the environment of Tribal communities in rural Alaska. Projects that demonstrate new approaches to providing safe drinking water; projects that advance the state of knowledge or transfer information on the use of integrated solid waste management systems to solve local waste management and generation problems; projects that take an innovative approach or utilize an experimental technology to advance waste management programs, including recycling and the reduction of wastes; projects that provide education, training, and outreach materials to teach Alaska native villages about waste’s impact on resource, energy use, and pollution; innovative solid waste demonstration projects that involve dissemination of information to others so that they can benefit from the knowledge gained; projects that involve learning, teaching, or discovery on improving sanitation to reduce human contact with waste; reducing human exposure to harmful air pollution such as fine particulates, and protecting subsistence resources from contamination all are eligible as long as projects are likely to reduce risks to Tribal members’ health or the Tribal members’ environment in rural Alaska and are within limitations and requirements of the statutory authority on which the project is based. Projects should include gathering or transferring of information, or advancing the state of knowledge. Projects should involve new, innovative or experimental methods, approaches or technologies and include plans for disseminating the results so that Tribal members and others can benefit from the knowledge gained. In order for a project to be considered a ‘demonstration,’ it must be innovative, must show off new, largely untested processes or products, or tried and true processes newly adapted to a particular use. A demonstration of well-known and widely used ideas or processes will not qualify as a demonstration.
