In this 90-minute session, we’ll cover what ALL applicants should do now – deepening partnerships, strengthening data and building site inventories. Then, it’s time to “split the deck”: Path A prepares you to hit the ground running with a workplan draft and financial readiness. Path B gives you a strategic pivot plan with debrief strategies, alternative funding and internal assessment tools. No matter which path, participants will leave with actionable steps to prepare for a potential EPA award or to pivot and strengthen your position if not selected. Keep your momentum going and be ready to move forward, no matter the outcome.
