To apply for FY X funding, your application must be submitted by 5/1/X-1. The funding becomes available in late X. EPA and WVDEP expect that a skillful, hard working group can accomplish a
project in three years, so 9/30/X+3 is a good target completion date. WVDEP must show that all funds are spent by 9/30/X+4. Therefore, WVDEP does not want to extend performance periods
past 6/30/X+4.
For example, if you submit an application for FY 2025 funding on 5/1/2024, you might receive a notice that the funding is available by 9/1/2025. Ideally, you will finish that project
sometime in 2028. If things go badly, however, the grant might be extended to 6/30/2029.
