The Oregon Watershed Enhancement Board (OWEB) is pleased to announce new Online Grant Applications. The Spring 2024 Open Solicitation Grant Offering will be the first grant cycle to use these improved online applications–other OWEB grant programs will follow later in 2024.
OWEB developed new applications to reduce repetition, improve clarity, and update “i” button guidance to include the evaluation criteria. Additionally, metrics information will no longer be collected in the application and instead will be collected prior to OWEB issuing Grant Agreements for projects awarded by the Board.
To aid potential applicants and answer questions about the new application process, OWEB staff will offer a webinar for each application type. Each 90-minute webinar will be recorded and posted on OWEB’s YouTube page. In addition, OWEB staff will host office hours for applicants to ask questions and seek clarification.
Trainings and office hours for applicants will be provided over Zoom. No registration is required and links for each event are listed below:
