Grants to Delaware government agencies and development centers, tribal entities, school systems, colleges and universities, nonprofit organizations, watershed groups, businesses, and individuals for projects that mitigate water pollution. Priority funding is intended for projects whose goal is to improve the water quality of water bodies identified as having nonpoint source pollution impairments and implemented in watersheds that have approved watershed management plans.
NPS pollution is defined as any pollution that originates from a diffuse source (such as an open field or a road) and is transported to surface or ground waters through leaching or runoff.
Reduction of NPS pollution may often be achieved through the incorporation of specific best management practices (BMPs) into project work plans. Projects may target any source of NPS pollution, but most frequently involve agriculture, silviculture, construction, marinas, septic systems, and hydro-modification activities.
For additional information about BMPs see: https://documents.dnrec.delaware.gov/swc/district/Documents/NPS/Grants/FY22-319-Grant-RFP.pdf#page=2
Section 319 funds are intended to be startup funds, not a continuous funding source. Sponsors may seek funding for two phases of a large project, such as Phase I planning and Phase II implementation, however, sponsors are generally not funded more than two or three times for similar efforts.
