Interagency Project To Clean Up Open 

Dumps on Tribal Lands: Request for 

Proposals

AGENCY: Environmental Protection 

Agency (EPA).

ACTION: Notice of availability.

SUMMARY: The Tribal Solid Waste 

Interagency Workgroup (Workgroup) is 

soliciting proposals for its seventh year 

of the Tribal Open Dump Cleanup 

Project (Cleanup Project). Since FY99, 

the Workgroup has funded 

approximately $13.4 million in projects. 

In FY04, the Interagency Workgroup 

made approximately $2.5 million 

available to fully or partially fund 24 

selected projects. A similar amount of 

funding is projected for FY05. The 

Cleanup Project is part of a federal effort 

to help tribes comprehensively address 

their solid waste needs. The purpose of 

the Cleanup Project is to assist with 

closing or upgrading tribal high-threat 

waste disposal sites and providing 

alternative disposal and integrated solid 

waste management. 

The Workgroup was established in 

April 1998 to coordinate federal 

assistance to tribes in bringing their 

waste disposal sites into compliance 

with the municipal solid waste landfill 

criteria (40 CFR part 258). Current 

Workgroup members include 

representatives from the U.S. 

Environmental Protection Agency 

(EPA); the Bureau of Indian Affairs 

(BIA); the Indian Health Service (IHS); 

and the Departments of Agriculture and 

Defense. EPA has issued docket number 

RCRA–2004–0018 for this Notice. 

Criteria: Eligible recipients of 

assistance under the Open Dump 

Cleanup Project include federally 

recognized tribes and intertribal 

consortiums. A full explanation of the 

submittal process, the qualifying 

requirements, and the criteria that will 

be used to evaluate proposals for this 

project may be found in the Request for 

Proposals package.

DATES: For consideration, proposals 

must be received by close of business on 

January 31, 2005. Proposals postmarked 

on or before but not received by the 

closing date will not be considered. 

Please do not rely solely on overnight 

mail to meet the deadlines.
