Cut Your Municipal Infrastructure Project Costs in Half with this Fantastic Grant Opportunity

The Nova Scotia PCAP program aims to reduce the financial burden on municipalities by providing funding for municipally owned infrastructure projects like water supply, sewage disposal, and solid waste management. Projects that reduce or eliminate actual and potential environmental and health problems in the municipality are given priority. Priority is also given to projects that include collaborating with multiple municipalities or having beneficial impacts on larger populations. Successful applicants must submit a Project Closeout Report and Statement of Expenditures within 60 days of project completion, confirming achievement of project outcomes.
