Priority Climate Action Plan
The U.S. EPA provided grant funding to the Muscogee (Creek) Nation (MCN) to develop a Priority Climate Action Plan (PCAP) and a Comprehensive Climate Action Plan (CCAP). The PCAP is to include proposed priority carbon reduction measures for submittal to EPA by April 1, 2024. The PCAP provides the basis for eligible entities to pursue Climate Pollution Reduction Grant (CPRG) implementation funding from EPA. In other words, applications for CPRG implementation grants must seek funding to implement measures that are included in a PCAP developed with funding from the CPRG planning grant. Implementation grant applications are due to EPA by May 1, 2024.
The Priority Climate Action Plan will be available on or after April 1, 2024.

Upcoming Events
Public outreach is essential to present information about the planning effort and gather community input for the MCN Priority Climate Action Plan (PCAP).
Stay involved as there will be additional engagement opportunities available during the development of the Comprehensive Climate Action Plan beginning in April 2024.
Climate Pollution Reduction Grants
The Climate Pollution Reduction Grants (CPRG) program provides $5 billion to states, local governments, tribes, and territories to develop and implement ambitious plans for reducing greenhouse gas emissions and other harmful air pollution. Authorized under Section 60114 of the Inflation Reduction Act, this two-phase program provides $250 million for noncompetitive planning grants, and approximately $4.6 billion for competitive implementation grants.
