YOUR REAL ODDS

This is a large federal program with up to $800M available, but competition from government entities and infrastructure agencies is significant.

Federal highway infrastructure grants of this scale typically require detailed engineering proposals and environmental documentation, making them resource-intensive to pursue. Exact award counts and selection rates are not available from the source.

WHAT IT TAKES

  1. Confirm eligibility and project scope (culvert removal, replacement, or restoration) — 1-2 weeks

  2. Register on SAM.gov if not already registered — 1-2 weeks

  3. Prepare and submit application via grants.gov — 4-8 weeks

WORTH KNOWING

This grant is administered by the DOT Federal Highway Administration, so projects must connect to transportation infrastructure and aquatic organism passage — purely environmental projects without a road or highway culvert component are unlikely to qualify.
