Applications
may be submitted by a state or local agency, tribe, non-profit organization,
or citizens’ group. Federal agencies, including the National Park
Service, may apply only in collaboration with a non-federal partner. RTCA
does not provide financial assistance to support project implementation.
Applicants are strongly encouraged to discuss their project with RTCA
staff before sending in an application. It can be helpful to schedule
an advance field visit by our staff to best understand how RTCA can be
of assistance. Please return your completed application to the program
leader for the state in which your project is located.
