Description The Public Participation Grants (PPG) Program is a competitive grant program of the Washington State Department of Ecology (Ecology). The grants support projects that help educate people and encourage Washington citizens to work together to solve solid waste and hazardous waste problems. The PPG Program provides funding to qualified not-for-profit organizations and citizens groups to:

• Facilitate public participation in the investigation and remediation of contaminated sites.
• Implement waste reduction education and prevention projects.
• Promote, carry out, or improve state or local solid waste or hazardous waste management plans.

These guidelines provide information about PPGs including requirements and the application procedure. They apply to all PPG agreements. All grant applicants are responsible for reading and understanding these guidelines along with the Administrative Requirements for Recipients of Ecology Grants and Loans Managed in EAGL before entering into a grant agreement with Ecology.

These guidelines define the PPG Program authorized by the Model Toxics Control Act (MTCA) RCW 70.105D.070[7]. In addition, these guidelines explain the criteria Ecology uses to evaluate and award grants. They will also help you plan and refine your environmental education or outreach project.
