Application Extension Announcement for the 2008 Illegal Dump Cleanup Grant Program

[38 Pa.B. 7121]
[Saturday, December 27, 2008]

   Applications for the 2008 Illegal Dump Cleanup Grant Program (Program) will be extended from December 19, 2008, to January 27, 2009. The Department of Environmental Protection (Department) will accept applications for the Program until 4 p.m. on January 27, 2009.

Program Objectives

   The Department is seeking proposals from eligible partners in this Commonwealth for the remediation of illegal dumps throughout this Commonwealth. The remediation and clean-up of these illegal dumps will eliminate the environmental, health and safety hazards associated with these sites, restore the scenic beauty of our Commonwealth, as well as restore and enhance civic pride in our communities.

   This grant program focuses on the following priority areas: cleanup of illegal dumps; surveillance of existing dump sites and remediated sites; enforcement of littering and illegal dumping ordinances; public awareness and education to inform local citizens about illegal dumping, littering and clean-up activities; and beautification and site restoration.

   The Department will award grants of up to $25,000 to any one applicant. Applicants may propose multiple sites for clean-up under one application provided the total grant request does not exceed $25,000. A 50% match is required prior to initial invoice for every proposal.

   Applications for the 2008 Program may be obtained by contacting Patti Olenick, Bureau of Waste Management, polenick@state.pa.us or (717) 787-8690. Applications are also available electronically at www.depweb.state.pa.us (DEP Keywords: Illegal Dumping).
