FY 2024 Pipeline Safety State Damage Prevention (SDP) Grants
Funder/Agency:
Department of Transportation (DOT), Pipeline and Hazardous Materials Safety Administration (PHMSA)
Opportunity Number:
693JK324NF0006
Description:
The SDP grant program fosters improved damage prevention programs by supporting projects such as the enforcement of state excavation damage prevention laws, stakeholder education about digging safely, technologies to improve efficiencies, and other related excavation safety initiatives. The funding is available to state authorities to help them align with one or more of nine elements that are considered characteristic of effective damage prevention programs, which are outlined in the SDP program authorizing statute (Pub. L. 109-468). SDP grants provide funding to help eligible states establish a comprehensive program to prevent damage to underground pipelines in states that do not have such programs, and to improve damage prevention programs in states that do.
SDP may include a broad range of support for activities fostering partnership/communication among stakeholders; training/education; consistent enforcement of damage prevention laws; and/or enhancement of technical support functions.
