Grant Description
Federal grant funds are available to States that have received PRISM training and submit an acceptable PRISM Implementation Plan. The Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA) provides 100 percent grants - no State match is required. States that are interested in participating in the program should request a briefing by FMCSA staff to explain the program and answer questions. If, after the introductory briefing, a State wants to join the program, a Letter of Intent must be sent to FMCSA and a training session will subsequently be scheduled to assist the State in developing an Implementation Plan. Upon approval of the plan by the FMCSA, the FMCSA Division Administrator and the appropriate official from the State agency that receives the grant must sign a Federal grant agreement. Interested States should contact Mr. Tom Lawler at 202-366-3866 or Mr. Bryan Price at 412-395-4816.
