Area Development Program - Appalachian Regional Commission ARC’s Area Development program relies on a flexible “bottom up” approach to economic development, empowering Appalachian communities to work with their state governments to design impactful investment opportunities supporting our mission and investment priorities .
All ARC Area Development grant proposals originate at the state level in consultation with the ARC state program manager . Managing Construction Projects ARC’s investments in roads, buildings, water systems, broadband networks and other brick-and-mortar projects are administered by a designated Basic Agency, a federal or state public agency experienced at managing federal construction grants.
Basic Agencies oversee environmental reviews, construction progress, grant payments and reimbursements, and all federal, state and local compliance issues. ARC’s Basic Agency Partners Managing Non-Construction Projects ARC’s non-construction investments in workforce training, food systems, asset development and other human capital initiatives are mostly managed directly by ARC staff.
