Frequently Asked Questions

1:   What is the performance period for the grant?

The performance period is 10/01/2024 to 9/30/2028

2: Can you provide a copy of the work plan and the original application for the grant?

EPA guidelines state that a copy of the work plan should not be included in RFQ materials.  Therefore we are not providing a copy of the cooperative agreement either.

No.  The 13 mile target area mentioned in the RFQ, references US 223 between the City of Adrian and the Village of Blissfield.

4. Under “Proposal Format Guidelines” one (1) digital copy (PDF format) is requested, should this be provided on a CD along with the three (3) hard copies? Or is there another preferred format?

Including the PDF copy on a CD or thumb drive is fine.
