Grants to prevent carbon monoxide poisoning
The Consumer Product Safety Commission proposes the Carbon Monoxide Poisoning Prevention Grant Program (COPPGP) to provide funding to eligible state, local, and tribal governments to reduce deaths and injuries from carbon monoxide poisoning by purchasing and installing carbon monoxide alarms and developing training and public education programs.
Application time and cost burden for applicants
CPSC estimates each non-tribal applicant will spend about 58 hours compiling six COPPGP attachments (tribal governments: about 53 hours). CPSC expects up to 35 respondents annually, a total estimated burden of 2,030 hours, and estimates the applicant-side cost at $127,728 per year using $62.92 per hour.
Two-year grants of $50,000–$400,000
COPPGP awards are two-year grants and grant awards can range from $50,000 to $400,000 per applicant. Prospective applicants will apply electronically via Grants.gov and GrantSolutions, and awards are posted on CPSC's website and via press release.
