Grants Covered Under the EnPPA

IDEM in keeping with recent national trends includes the use of a Performance Partnership Grant (PPG) structure as part of its Performance Partnership Agreement (PPA). The PPG structure has successfully provided IDEM more flexibility in the use of Federal financial resources to address environmental issues using a multifaceted approach, and has reduced the administrative burden of having numerous specific categorical grants tied to work plans. The PPG allows for the continuance of key resource investments that have already been determined to be priority activities. The Federal and the state funding in the current PPG are $24.14 million and $19.57 million respectively. The proposed general categories are as follows:

  1. Clean Water Act (CWA) Section 106-activities under CFDA 66.419;
  2. Public Water System Supervision (PWSS)-activities under CFDA 66.432;
  3. Watershed Section 319(h)-activities under CFDA 66.460;
  4. Air Section 105-activities under CFDA 66.001;
  5. Air PM2.5 Section 103-activities under CFDA 66.034;
  6. Underground Storage Tank-activities under CFDA 66.805 & 66.816;
  7. Resource Conservation Recovery Act (RCRA) (Hazardous Waste Permitting and Great Lakes Initiative)-activities under CFDA 66.801 & 66.808;
  8. Polychlorinated Biphenyl(s) PCB-activities under CFDA 66.701;
  9. Corrective Action-activities under CFDA 66.801.

Non-PPG grant activity covered in the EnPPA include components from the following sources:

  1. Wetlands Development Grant Program CVA 104 (b)(3)-activities under CFDA 66.479;
  2. Outreach Operator Training 104(g)(1)-activities under CFDA 66.467;
  3. Counter Terrorism SDWA 1442-activities under CFDA 66.474;
  4. Clean School Bus USA-activities under CFDA 66.036.

With the receipt, and use, of Federal funds towards an endeavor, comes the responsibility of the recipient to track the success of the program and to show results. To achieve the goals of transparent grants management, IDEM has incorporated standard operating procedures (SOPs), a grants management policy and a grant data tracking system to direct the application, receipt, use and closeout of all grants the Agency receives. This approach will provide for easy information sharing and interaction between the awarding agencies and IDEM.
