WaterSMART: Water and Energy Efficiency Grants for FY2010: The objective of this Funding Opportunity Announcement (FOA) is to invite States, Indian Tribes, irrigation districts, water districts and other organizations with water or power delivery authority to leverage their money and resources by cost sharing with Reclamation on projects that conserve and use water more efficiently, increase the use of renewable energy in the management or delivery of water, protect endangered and threatened species, facilitate water markets, or carry out other activities to address climate-related impacts on water or prevent any water-related crisis or conflict. With leveraged water sustainability grants, an important step will be taken towards increasing conservation for a more efficient use of water in the West. Two separate Groups of project funds will be awarded as follows: (1) Funding Group I: for projects with a Federal share of up to $300,000; 30-40 awards; between $9,000,000 and $10,000,000 in funding available; (2) Funding Group II: for projects with a Federal share from $300,001 to $1,000,000; 4-8 awards; between $4,000,000 and $5,000,000 in funding available. Applicants may submit proposals for both Funding Groups; however, no more than $1,000,000 in Federal funding will be awarded to any one applicant under this FOA. Applicants must provide a cost share of 50% or more of the total project cost. Click on the "Full Announcement" button near the top of this Synopsis page to access the full FOA document.
