Technical Assistance Grant (TAG)

The Pipeline and Hazardous Materials Safety Administration (PHMSA), through the U. S. Department of Transportation (DOT), hereby requests applications from local communities and groups of individuals (not including for-profit entities) to obtain funding for technical assistance in the form of engineering

or other scientific analysis of pipeline safety issues affecting the local community or to help promote public participation in official proceedings (excluding non-official proceedings) pertaining to pipeline safety issues.

The Technical Assistance Grants (TAG) program, first authorized in the Pipeline Safety Improvement Act of 2002 (Act) (P.

L.

107-355, codified at 49 U.S.C.
