Can a for-profit organization apply for an EN grant?
No, for-profit organizations do not meet eligibility criteria for the Exchange Network grant program as a lead applicant. In rare cases, for-profit organizations may be eligible to participate in a project as an EN partner and receive subaward funding; however, this is dependent on EPA approval which is rarely provided. For-profit firms may also participate in a project as hired contracting firm or vendor, subject to state or Federal competitive procurement requirements.
