The Patrick Leahy Lake Champlain Basin Program (LCBP), administered with NEIWPCC, is accepting 2027 Stormwater Property Assessment and Technical Assistance grant applications from qualifying community organizations in the Lake Champlain watershed. Applicants may request up to $25,000 each; approximately $438,000 is available across the entire initiative, not per applicant.
The grants support organizations conducting Lake Wise, Stream Wise, and Rain Wise educational assessments, landowner outreach, site visits, recommendations, and stormwater-management assistance to improve clean water, biodiversity, resilience and flood outcomes. Eligible organizations must be situated and work within the basin and may include nonprofit organizations, colleges and universities, New York Soil and Water and Vermont Natural Resource Conservation Districts, and nonfederal/nonstate local government agencies such as municipalities. For-profit businesses and federal or state agencies are ineligible. One proposal per eligible organization is allowed. Existing LCBP contract holders must be in good standing.
No cash or in-kind match is required, although voluntary nonfederal match may improve a proposal. Appropriate direct expenditures include eligible staff, travel, supplies, equipment, meetings, outreach work and professional services, subject to the controlling RFP and federal compliance rules. The separate opportunity for existing awarded grantees to request a purchase order of up to $10,000 for approved materials is NOT an additional guaranteed applicant grant award. Applicants must comply with required reporting, approved project workplan and environmental quality-assurance plans where applicable, receipts, reimbursement and procurement terms.
