AI Contract Overview
The Food Waste Reduction Grant Program, administered by the New York State Department of Economic Development, is a $2 million initiative aimed at decreasing food waste across the state by supporting projects that divert excess edible food and food scraps from landfills. The program offers capital equipment assistance grants to municipalities, not-for-profit organizations, or entities applying on behalf of NYS businesses. Grants are awarded competitively and cover up to 50% of project costs, with awards ranging from a minimum of $50,000 to a maximum of $500,000. Successful projects are expected to enhance the state's capacity and infrastructure for food waste diversion, thereby contributing to methane emission reductions. The application process is accessible through the NYS Consolidated Funding Application portal, with a submission deadline of January 10, 2025, and the contract period extends up to four years. The program is open to all counties within New York State, with no set-aside for service-disabled veteran-owned businesses, and has specific MWBE participation goals of 30%. Notably, applicants with similar contracts within the past five years are ineligible. The program emphasizes building sustainable infrastructure for food waste reduction, supporting environmental goals and community resilience across the state.
