Clean Rivers Impervious Area Charge (CRIAC) Nonprofit Relief Program is sponsored by District of Columbia Department of Energy and Environment (DOEE). This program provides financial relief to eligible nonprofit organizations facing hardship with the payment of their Clean Rivers Impervious Area Charge (CRIAC).
To qualify, organizations must also complete a stormwater mitigation project by installing green infrastructure on their property or elsewhere in the District. While not a direct program grant for arboretum operations, it could offer significant financial relief and support for stormwater management projects that enhance the arboretum's environmental impact.

Read articleOn June 2, 2026, the Department of Energy's Office of Critical Minerals and Energy Innovation selected two demonstration-scale facilities — Phoenix Tailings (with MIT and the University of Minnesota) for $66 million, and the Colorado School of Mines (with ElementUSA, PNNL, Principal Mineral, and Rare Earth Technologies Inc.) for the balance — under the Rare Earth Elements Demonstration Facility Program. Both projects pull rare earths from industrial waste — red mud at the Gramercy refinery in Louisiana, and a mix of mine and refining tailings elsewhere. Here is what the selections tell researchers, small businesses, and downstream magnet customers about where DOE thinks the chokepoint actually is, and what to do before the next demonstration-scale solicitation opens.
