Description
This Funding Opportunity Announcement (DE-FOA-0002711) will support the availability of Carbon Capture, Utilization, and Storage (CCUS) and carbon dioxide removal (CDR) to reach climate goals by building upon these learnings to test, mature, and validate CCUS technologies at commercial-scale. One aspect is the need to improve practices regarding how to efficiently and cost-effectively characterize and permit commercial carbon storage project site(s) ensuring that secure geologic carbon storage is available in diverse regions and settings that will support longer term carbon management goals across the US. The CarbonSAFE initiative was launched in 2016. Modification 000007 is to make various administrative updates and include the requirement of Impacted Tribal Documentation that was inadvertently deleted in previous amendment. Please see full FOA document for a detailed list of the changes.
