Introducing Technical Assistance Grants (TAG)!
The Department of Toxic Substances Control (DTSC) invites residents, non-profit organizations (501c3) and community advocates/organizations that serve those impacted by environmental issues to learn about the Technical Assistance Grant (TAG) program and its eligibility requirements. Environmental consultants are instrumental in this program, but only in collaboration with the affected community-based organization(s). The TAG program provides vulnerable communities an opportunity to actively participate in the oversight of environmental cleanup activities that affect them. The Program will provide grants ranging from $40,000-$150,000, to hire and direct an independent technical advisor who can assist in analyzing, interpreting, and communicating complex environmental information to residents living within a 5-mile radius of an active DTSC cleanup project.
The form should be completed including required attachments and emailed to hs-vendormaintenance@ucdavis.edu
