The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has extended the deadline to apply for its latest round of Diesel Emissions Reduction Act (DERA) funding. Proposals are now due by July 5, 2017.
The EPA also increased the amount of funding available from $11 million to $34 million and now has made clean alternative fuel conversions of vehicles or engines eligible for grant funding (up to 40% of the conversion cost).
DERA grant funds are awarded annually for projects that significantly reduce diesel emissions, especially in areas with poor air quality.
