The principal recipient is the grant administrator and it's not executing the programs projects on the ground. However, can the principal recipient be a partner with the Sub-awardees’ organizations and execution of projects or programs?

The principal recipient will run the grants program with the primary role to fund project subrecipients, though the RFA is clear that that the principal recipient may be asked to provide technical assistance. GLNPO anticipates this to be a collaborative process between the PR and EPA. The primary function of the principal recipient is to oversee the implementation of the Project RFA, provide technical support, and oversee the lifecycle of all awards made.
