Grant Description: "Under this Request for Applications, GLNPO is requesting application packages for the management and operation of the Integrated Atmospheric Deposition Network (IADN) from October 1, 2009, to September 30, 2014, and to potentially conduct additional special studies and enhancements to IADN. EPA is requesting that applicants submit applications for up to $760,000 for Year 1, followed by four more years of potential funding, adjusted roughly for inflation, for an estimated total of up to $5 million over five years to operate IADN's base program and to potentially conduct additional special studies and enhancements to IADN. IADN is called for in Annex 15 of the Great Lakes Water Quality Agreement (GLWQA) and the Clean Air Act Amendments of 1990. IADN is a binational cooperative effort between the U.S. EPA and Environment Canada aimed at estimating atmospheric deposition of PBTs to the Great Lakes. It is used as a platform for conducting research, monitoring, and surveillance activities to assess the atmospheric deposition of PBTs to the Great Lakes.
