Office of Integrated Waste Management (DOE-IWM), DOE’s Office of Environmental Management (DOE-EM), and Office of Packaging and Transportation (DOE-OPT) in planning and coordination for Departmental radioactive materials shipments, both ongoing and for future large-scale DOE transportation of commercial spent nuclear fuel (SNF), high-level radioactive waste (HLW), and other radioactive materials.
This facilitation is an essential component of developing and implementing successful DOE radioactive materials transportation programs that are safe, secure, and merit public trust and confidence.

Additional Information of Eligibility:

Eligible Applicants: The eligibility of an applicant is dependent on the type of MSEIP grant the applicant seeks.
There are four types of MSEIP grants: institutional project, special project, cooperative project, and design project.
Institutional project grants are grants that support the implementation of a comprehensive science improvement plan, which may include any combination of activities for improving the preparation of minority students for careers in science.
There are two types of special project grants.
First, there are special project grants for which only minority institutions are eligible.
These special project grants support activities that: (1) improve quality training in science and engineering at minority institutions; or (2) enhance the minority institutions' general scientific research capabilities.
There also are special project grants for which all applicants are eligible.
These special project grants support activities that: (1) provide a needed service to a group of eligible minority institutions; or (2) provide in-service training for project directors, scientists, and engineers from eligible minority institutions.
Cooperative project grants assist groups of nonprofit accredited colleges and universities to work together to conduct a science improvement program.
Design project grants assist minority institutions that do not have their own appropriate resources or personnel to plan and develop long-range science improvement programs.
We will not award design project grants in the FY 2021 competition.

(d) For cooperative project grants, eligible applicants are groups of nonprofit accredited colleges and universities whose primary fiscal agent is an eligible minority institution as defined in 34 CFR 637.4(b).
