DCIP Now Accepting Project Proposals

March 29, 2024

The DOD Office of Local Defense Community Cooperation is accepting proposals for the fiscal year 2024 Defense Community Infrastructure Program, according to a Thursday announcement.

The full opportunity is listed on Grants.gov.

DCIP is designed “to assist state and local governments, and not-for-profit, member-owned utilities in addressing deficiencies in community infrastructure supportive of a military installation,” the funding notice says. That “includes projects related to transportation; schools; hospitals; police, fire, or emergency response, or other community support facilities; and utility projects.”

Proposals are due June 17. Awards will be finalized by the end of September.

In the appropriations bill signed into law over the weekend, Congress provided $100 million for this round of awards.

DCIP Webinar April 18

OLDCC will host an informational webinar April 18 at 3 p.m. Eastern time for anyone considering submitting a proposal. You can access the link on the DCIP website.
