The following information and documents are provided to assist potential applicants in planning for proposals in response to the Fiscal Year 2012 (FY12) Nonpoint Source (NPS) Program Request for Proposals (RFP). It is anticipated the FY12 RFP will include up to $4 million in state and federal funding for nonpoint source projects. Actual amounts will be determined through the State and federal budget processes. The application and award process will be similar to previous years. All applicants will be required to submit a Notice of Intent (NOI) form electronically and eligible applicants will be invited to submit full proposals. We strongly suggest that applicants consult with NPS staff as they prepare their NOI and develop full proposals.
