 proposals (RFP) is intended to increase the capacity of Oregon Local Public Health Authorities (LPHAs) and tribal public health authorities, particularly those that have identified domestic wells and water security as local priorities through county hazard
 assessments. The Oregon Health Authority’s (OHA) Domestic Well Safety Program (DWSP) intends to provide grants to support outreach efforts identified by LPHAs in their proposals to this RFP. In working with LPHAs, the DWSP will help plan and deliver outreach
 and interventions to communities of concern, as identified by LPHAs. <o:p></o:p></span></p>

 Grantees will receive $10,000 in year one (January 1, 2019 – September 29, 2019) and an additional $5,000 in year two (September 30, 2019 – September 29, 2020). The second year of funding is contingent upon DWSP receiving federal funding. DWSP suggests that
 projects use Year 2 to conduct evaluation and follow-up on Year 1 activities. <o:p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:12.0pt">The funds available are intended to support LPHA staff in building capacity for local domestic well stewardship. DWSP will consider proposals from LPHAs that pass funds through to partner agencies/organizations
 in their community, so long as the project is coordinated in the LPHA and contributes to capacity building.
