- Description
- The Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) issued a solicitation on March 2, 2007, for a competitive grant program entitled "Highways for LIFE Technology Partnerships Program." FHWA anticipates making 12 awards at the $200,000 funding level and up to 3 awards at the $500,000 funding level. The solicitation is available at www.Grants.gov under Funding Opportunity Number DTFH61-07-RA-00106. Proposals are due April 16, 2007. FHWA will conduct a pre-proposal teleconference on March 15 to discuss the program and address any questions from potential applicants. See page 2 of the solicitation (full announcement) on www.grants.gov for details on the pre-proposal teleconference. The purpose of the Highways for LIFE (HfL) Technology Partnerships Program is to work with the highway construction industry to accelerate the adoption of promising innovations. Innovations is an inclusive term used by HfL to convey all of the following, but not limited to: technologies, materials, tools, equipment, procedures, specifications, methodologies, processes, or practices used in the financing, design, or construction of roads or highways. This component of the Highways for LIFE Program is intended to provide the financial impetus to adapt a proven non-highway related innovation or to refine or improve existing equipment, materials, practices, or processes that have been demonstrated but not become adopted as routine or common practice in the highway industry. The program is intended to fund innovations that have been developed to a prototype and require further refinement, testing, evaluation and first application in a real-world setting before they would be available for purchase, or conventional practice.
