About
The District Department of Transportation (DDOT) is committed to maintaining open communication and engagement with the community, Advisory Neighborhood Commissions (ANCs), and the Council of the District of Columbia to find solutions for transportation-related matters. DDOT's Community Engagement Division (CED) coordinates, assesses, and addresses community and ANC requests, informs ANCs and communities on the status of DDOT projects and service requests, and identifies strategic and routine actions to build community support for the District's transportation infrastructure projects and program initiatives.
DC Transportation Alternatives Program (TAP)
The TAP or TA Set-Aside is a reimbursable federal aid funding program for transportation-related community projects designed to strengthen the intermodal transportation system. The program aims to expand travel choice, strengthen the local economy, improve the quality of life, and protect the environment by supporting non-traditional projects linked to the transportation system.
Projects will be reviewed through a competitive process and selected based upon a number of criteria, including the project’s expected benefits to the community, feasibility and project readiness, consistency with agency plans and missions, and the sponsor’s demonstrated ability to manage a federal-aid project.
The Transportation Planning Board (TPB) encourages TAP projects that support the following:
FY 27-28 Funding
DDOT will be accepting projects on a 2-year cycle. Projects for both FY27 and FY28 will be selected and approved through this application cycle. A total of approximately $2,951,200 million in funding will be available through a citywide competitive process for qualifying projects. Awarded projects will be funded in either FY27 or FY28 based on project readiness and availability of funds, so Applicants should be prepared that they might not receive funding until 2027. The Transportation Planning Board (TPB) will work with DDOT to conduct the competitive selection process for funds.
The Transportation Alternatives program is a part of the Federal-aid Highway Program. Although the program is a “grant” program under Federal regulation, it is not an “up-front” grant program, and funds are available only on a reimbursement basis. Only after a project has been approved by the District Department of Transportation (DDOT) and the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) division office can costs become eligible for reimbursement. This means project sponsors must incur the cost of the project prior to being repaid. Costs incurred prior to FHWA division office project approval are not eligible for reimbursement.

Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. Regional Scholarship
Inspired by the belief that love and peaceful protest can eliminate social, political, and economic injustice, Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., became this nation’s most heralded civil right leader. He aroused blacks and whites alike to protest racial discrimination, war, and poverty. A champion of nonviolent resistance to oppression, he was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize in 1964. Dr. King’s life ended at the age of 39 on April 4, 1968, when he was assassinated in Memphis, Tennessee. However short his life was, he greatly advanced the cause of civil rights in this nation. His life serves as an encouragement to each of us to do all that we can to end injustice.
The Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. Regional Scholarships are awarded each year to Bay County high school seniors (regardless of ethnicity) who actively embrace Dr. King’s dream of improving racial harmony and social justice. The scholarship award(s) will be at least $1,000 and are non-renewable. The scholarship award(s) will be presented at the annual Great Lakes Bay Regional Martin Luther King, Jr. Celebration program held each January.
This scholarship is also available to Midland and Saginaw County students through their respective community foundations.
Background
The Business Acceleration and Marketing program (BAM) is funded through the Montana Growth Through Agriculture program (GTA). GTA was created by the 1987 Legislature and is administered by the seven member Montana Agriculture Development Council, which is attached to the Montana Department of Agriculture (MDA). The legislative purpose of the program is to strengthen and diversify Montana's agricultural industry through loans and grants to assist the development of innovative agricultural business organizational improvements and the commercialization and marketing of new agricultural products in order to keep pace with a transforming agricultural industry and to create new jobs and expand small business opportunities. Funds are available now and are awarded on a quarterly basis, in the order the application is received, until funds are expended.
These funds are to:
The Diesel Emissions Reduction Act Program was created under the Energy Policy Act of 2005. This act gave EPA new grant and loan authority for promoting diesel emission reductions and authorized appropriations to the Agency of up to $200 million per year through FY2011. Congress appropriated funds for the first time under this program in FY2008.
In 2020, DERA was reauthorized under Division S – Innovation for the Environment section of the Consolidated Appropriations Act, 2021 for up to $100 million annually through 2024. The program will continue to award grants and rebates to achieve diesel emissions reduction.
The DERA State Grant is intended for county, city, or other local government entities, private businesses, colleges and universities, and non-profit organizations. DERA grants are awarded to eligible applicants for the implementation of diesel emissions reduction projects which will positively impact air quality and public health. Projects should be cost-effective, easily feasible, and reduce emissions through engine repowers, equipment and exhaust retrofits, or equipment replacements. DERA grants typically cover 25% of eligible costs; however, the award can be more dependent on the type of project. The applicant is responsible for the remaining costs.
The Utah State Board of Education (USBE) Digital Teaching and Learning (DTL) Grant Program provides funds to Utah schools for technology-powered learning, guided by Utah Code 53F-2-510 and USBE Board Rule R277-922.

It performs an engineering study to determine the technology infrastructure needs of the public education system to implement a digital teaching and learning program, including the infrastructure needed for the state board, UETN, and LEAs; and as funding allows, UETN provides infrastructure and technology support for school districts and charter schools.
The Digital Teaching and Learning Grant Program was created to improve educational outcomes in public schools by effectively incorporating comprehensive digital teaching and learning technology. There is no federal funding, federal requirement, federal education agreement, or national program included or related to this state adopted program.

Abel-Weatherwax Family Scholarship
On October 16, 1903, a day now known as “Black Friday,” a spectacular fire leveled ten city blocks in downtown Aberdeen, destroying 140 buildings and killing three people. As the young city began to rebuild, it was driven by what became known as the Rainbow Spirit — an infectious optimism that revealed a strength the community barely knew it had. That optimism survived another disastrous fire, sparked just eleven days later, which leveled again some of the same businesses displaced by the first fire.
Almost 100 years later, on January 5, 2002, the Rainbow Spirit came alive again after a midnight fire gutted Aberdeen’s Weatherwax High School, leaving only the skeleton of its landmark main building. Built just six years after the 1903 fires, the high school had been named to honor Aberdeen pioneer J. M. Weatherwax.
The Grays Harbor Community Foundation first offered these Abel-Weatherwax Scholarships in 2002. Named in honor of J. M. and other members of a family whose history is inseparable from the history of Grays Harbor, the scholarships are open to all applicants who satisfy the general eligibility requirements of the Scholarship Program.
