Kentucky counties can apply through November 2, 2026 at 4:30 PM ET for Kentucky Pride Fund support to clean up eligible illegal open dumps. Counties request amounts based on estimated cleanup costs; projects under $50,000 require a 25% local match, while projects estimated above $50,000 do not require match initially and may become subject to match if final eligible costs fall below $50,000.
Required next actionIdentify an eligible Kentucky county with a documented illegal open dump; confirm current Kentucky Pride Fund and solid-waste-management eligibility; complete the current DEP 7125 application, signed grant agreement, DEP 6086 Estimated Expense Worksheet for each dump, DWM pre-inspection and required support; document the 25% local match for a dump under $50,000 or apply the current no-initial-match rule for a dump estimated above $50,000; submit the complete package to the program contact by November 2, 2026 at 4:30 p.m. ET.

Required next actionMonitor the official Kentucky Division of Water page for release of the current-cycle Section 319(h) Grant Documents.

Kentucky also warns that previously downloaded application forms may contain an obsolete 319 Grant Reporter link, so use only the current official document set after release. Then verify forms, attachments, submission mechanics, amendments, project-specific eligibility and the 40% nonfederal match before action.
