Spoke with the Honduran Representative at IAF. Monroe had a conversation with him as well and since Aguaclara is not eligible for the grant in its current form he suggested APP continue to apply for it instead

This would be an application to become an REU site. Cornell has a number of these already, it might be helpful to talk to their directors, their information is available on the website.

APP may be interested in this. I don't think it could be used to construct plants, but may be applicable for further research about the impact of the plants on water quality, health, etc.

WaterCredit Grant/Loan

International Financial Assistance Projects Sponsered By the Office of International Affairs

project areas description

contact EPA Grants Administration Division

Unsolicited proposals before 5/15 FY
Competitive awards DL must contact OIA

This announcement is really confusing, but it mentions as one of its objectives "International Capacity Building (water safe to drink)"... there may not currently be grants offered in that area, but I think it would be worth keeping an eye on, and maybe enquiring about to get more information.

USAID Public Private Alliance Program

Pogram Description

grants.gov

submit concept paper to Honduras mission
(further interest reply within 60 days)

This program looks really interesting. They recommend interested applicants contact the mission first to make sure the project is in line with the missions objectives before submitting a concept paper. It requires "resource leverage" on a 1:1 ratio... at least some of which must be in cash. We would need to specify exactly what our resources are, i.e. technical expertise, knowledge, service hours, etc.
