Defense Community Infrastructure Pilot Program
Section 2391(d) of Title 10, United States Code (10 U.S.C.
§ 2391(d)), authorizes the Secretary of Defense to “make grants, conclude cooperative agreements, and supplement funds available under Federal programs administered by agencies other than the Department of Defense, to assist State and local governments to address deficiencies in community infrastructure supportive of a military installation.” Community infrastructure projects are transportation projects, communitysupport facilities (e.g., schools, hospitals, police, fire, and emergency response), and utility infrastructure projects (e.g., water, waste-water, telecommunications, electric, gas, etc.) that are located off of a military installation, support a military installation, and are owned by a State or local government or a not-for-profit, member owned utility service.This notice identifies the criteria established for the selection of community infrastructure projects.
Proposals will be competitively scored across these criteria, identified in Section E.,paragraph 1. of this notice.

Local installation endorsement letters should indicate the installation’s need for the project and willingness to support the local community’s execution of the project, including assisting the Office of Local Defense Community Cooperation with the technical review of any required National Environmental Policy Act environmental planning documents for the proposed project.The Office of Local Defense Community Cooperation may supplement funds available under Federal programs administered by agencies other than the Department of Defense.
