The National Infrastructure Project Assistance (Mega) program was created in the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law to fund major projects that are too large or complex for traditional funding programs. It is a highly competitive program. The Bipartisan Infrastructure Law provides $5 billion for Mega over 5 years, of which approximately $1.
7 billion remains and will be made available through this NOFO. Half of the funds available in each fiscal year is reserved for projects greater than $500 million in cost, and half is reserved for projects greater than $100 million but less than $500 million in cost. Applications will be evaluated on six outcome criteria, economic analysis, project readiness, and statutory requirements.
The six outcome criteria are: (1) safety; (2) state of good repair; (3) economic impacts, freight movement, and job creation; (4) climate change, resilience, and the environment; (5) equity, multimodal options, and quality of life; and (6) innovation areas: technology, project delivery, and financing.
Applicants that wish to submit the same application to be considered for more than one grant program under the MPDG combined NOFO only need to submit their application through one Grants. gov opportunity number and that application will be considered for all programs for which it is not opted-out or ineligible. It is not necessary to submit multiple of the same application under the other MPDG Grants.

NOT-OD-26-112 released a draft NIH Biosafety Policy for Research Involving Biohazards on August 19, 2026. It would replace the NIH Guidelines for Research Involving Recombinant or Synthetic Nucleic Acid Molecules, extend IBC jurisdiction from engineered molecules to wild-type agents, toxins and prions, impose 24-hour incident reporting, and make the Biosafety Officer a federally defined role. Here is what actually changes and how to respond before the October 19, 2026 deadline.
Read articleThe U.S. Government Policy for Stopping High-Risk Life Sciences Research, released July 28, 2026 under EO 14292 and implemented at NIH through NOT-OD-26-101, replaces mitigation with prohibition. It bans dangerous gain-of-function research outright, gates potential DGOF behind government-wide review, and creates International Research of Concern — a research-security regime wearing biosafety clothing. Penalties run to five-year debarment and False Claims Act exposure.
Read articleFEMA's Procurement Disaster Assistance Team is running free Procurement Under Grants trainings through September 2026 — and behind them sits a compliance regime, 2 CFR 200.317–200.327, that trips up recipients and subrecipients every year. The most common way to lose FEMA money is not failing to win it; it is buying goods and services the wrong way after you win. Here is what the federal procurement standards actually require, why the OMB Uniform Guidance overhaul raises the stakes, and how to build a compliant procurement file before an auditor asks for one.
