Please follow these instructions before applying for SCC grants that are funded through the Climate Commitment Act funding.
Please note: These notifications are required for any CCA-funded project that doesn't already have a funding agreement in place. If you have already received funding, we are not asking to send a retroactive notification letter at this time.
Moving forward, for any SCC grant program that is funded by the Climate Commitment Act, the statute (RCW 70A.65.305) requires that applicants notify, “all affected federally recognized Tribes within the project area,” about their proposed project as early as possible prior to approval of funding.
All additional information, including instructions, resources and a letter template, can be found at scc.wa.gov/cd/cca.
If you have any questions, please reach out to your regional manager or to Acting Policy Director Kate Delavan (KDelavan@scc.wa.gov).
