Eligible Programs: Brownfields, CERCLA, Federal Facilities, Hazardous Waste, Solid Waste, and Tanks
The Association of State and Territorial Solid Waste Management Officials (ASTSWMO) has limited cooperative agreement funding available to allow States and Territories (States) to share experiences and technologies related to Brownfields, CERCLA, Federal Facilities, Hazardous Waste, Solid Waste, and Tanks (UST and LUST) program management. This "peer match" funding supports the ability for one, sometimes two, State managers or staff seeking assistance to travel to another State for two to three days to exchange information, applications, experiences, technologies ,and reports on programmatic approaches of particular interest to the assistance-seeking State. Information-providing States can also travel to States requesting assistance to share knowledge and expertise. ASTSWMO will reimburse State staff for travel expenses incurred on the peer match trip.
The primary State staff seeking assistance through this peer match mechanism should complete an application form to receive consideration for funding. If the peer match is approved, ASTSWMO will send the traveling staff our travel procedures, reimbursement information and form, and in-kind match form, which should be filled out and returned to the ASTSWMO office after completion of the trip. The participant must also complete a peer match trip report that provides details about the purpose and success of the peer match, which should be submitted to the ASTSWMO office along with the reimbursement claim. All peer match trips reports will be archived on the ASTSMWO website.
If you or your staff members are interested in participating in ASTSWMO's Peer Match Program, please complete the attached form and return it to Dania Rodriguez, Deputy Executive Director, in the ASTSWMO office. To facilitate the review process, please provide all relevant information. You will be notified in writing regarding the approval of your request. If you have any questions about the Peer Match Program please contact Dania Rodriguez at (202) 624-5973.
