See More Frequent Questions about Fuels Registration, Reporting, and Compliance Help . The GHG emissions performance of a Jatropha-based pathway was not analyzed for the final rule because sufficient information was not available.

Could an organization in the coalition be a Project Subrecipient if there is a conflict-of-interest policy in place?
Full Question If we develop a conflict-of-interest policy and require recusal from evaluating or prioritizing projects where a conflict arises, would this allow EJ orgs to submit projects for funding even if they are getting paid to advise on the structure and process for the re-grant program and participation in…

Is there an expectation on whether small subawards, for ~ $50K, or large subawards, for ~$750K are preferable? For example, a large subaward could be the only thing a regional PR could award if they ask for the minimum of $2,000,000.
The RFA does not state a preference for the size of the subaward, so long as the subaward is within the $50,000 to $750,000 limit. GLNPO will look to applicants to describe the program to be carried out and why this amount of subaward funding makes sense for their specific…

Is it better to not include letters of support from orgs given that they will ultimately be subject to have to apply in a competitive process?
Full Question: The RFA mentions that contractors and subawards must be awarded competitively, however in our niche field and in many of these underserved communities (especially in less urban environments) there may only be 1 or 2 sub-awardees/contractors to work with at all. Should we apply with support listed from…

We understand that our nonprofit could not be both the regranter and the regrantee, but does the prohibition against receiving EJ grants extend to board members of our organization?
If the board members help make decisions for the main grantee, there would be a potential conflict of interest if they were to also receive grants as subrecipients.

Would it be possible at all to share the list of webinar attendees for coalition-building purposes?
While we encourage applications from coalitions, unfortunately we are not able to facilitate these relationships. EPA will announce the winners of the competition so you would be able to reach out to those winners at that time for subaward or partnership opportunities.
