Defense Community Infrastructure Pilot Program: Section 2391(d) of Title 10, United States Code (10 U.S.C. § 2391(d)), authorizes the Secretary of Defense to “make grants, conclude cooperative agreements, and supplement funds available under Federal programs administered by agencies other than the Department of Defense, to assist State and local governments to address deficiencies in community infrastructure supportive of a military installation.” Community infrastructure projects are transportation projects, community support facilities (e.g., schools, hospitals, police, fire, and emergency response), and utility infrastructure projects (e.g., water, wastewater, telecommunications, electric, gas, etc.) that are located off of a military installation or on property under the jurisdiction of a Secretary of a military department that is subject to a real estate agreement (including a lease or easement), and are owned by a State or local government or a not-for-profit, member owned utility service.This Notice identifies the criteria established for the selection of community infrastructure projects. Proposals will be competitively scored across these criteria, identified in Section E., paragraph 1. of this Notice. $100 million in funding is available for this program and will expire if they are not obligated prior to the close of business on September 30, 2023.Project proposals must include the endorsement of the local installation commander representing the installation benefitting from the proposed project. Proposals for projects that will contribute to the training of cadets enrolled in an independent program at a covered educational institution must include the endorsement of an installation commander for an installation benefitting from the proposed project, regardless of the distance between the covered educational institution and the installation benefitting from the project. Endorsement letters should indicate either the installation's or covered educational institution's need for the project and the benefitting installation's willingness to support the civilian execution of the project to the extent practicable, including assisting the Office of Local Defense Community Cooperation with the technical review of any required National Environmental Policy Act environmental planning documents for the proposed project.

- Category Explanation
- This Notice of Funding Opportunity announces an opportunity to obtain funding from the Office of Local Defense Community Cooperation under the Defense Community Infrastructure Pilot Program to assist State and local governments, and not for profit, member owned utilities, in addressing deficiencies in community infrastructure supportive of a military installation. For purposes of the Defense Community Infrastructure Pilot Program, “Community Infrastructure” includes projects that relate to transportation; schools; hospitals; police, fire, or emergency response, or other community support facilities; and utility projects (including, without limitation, of water, wastewater, telecommunications, electric and natural gas facilities). The facility addressed in the application must not be located on a military installation, unless it is on property under the jurisdiction a military department and is subject to a real estate agreement (e.g., a lease or an easement). The facility or project itself must be owned by a State or local government or a not for profit, member owned utility. This notice includes proposal requirements, deadline for submitting proposals, and criteria that will be used to select proposal respondents that will apply for a grant under this program. The Fiscal Year 2023 National Defense Authorization Act amends the statute that authorizes the Defense Community Infrastructure Pilot Program as follows: 1) projects that will contribute to the training of cadets enrolled in an independent Reserve Officer Training Corps program at a covered educational institution will be prioritized after projects that will enhance military value at a military installation and before projects that will enhance military installation resilience; 2) the term “community infrastructure” means a project or facility that is located off of a military installation or on property under the jurisdiction of a Secretary of a military department that is subject to a real estate agreement (including a lease or easement); and, 3) in selecting community infrastructure projects to receive assistance under this program, the Secretary shall consider infrastructure improvements identified in the report on strategic seaports required by section 3515 of the National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2020 (Public Law 116-92; 133 Stat. 1985). Defense Community Infrastructure Pilot Program grants may supplement funds available under Federal programs administ
